Camara, who can play out wide or as a striker, arrives at Pride Park having scored two goals in 17 appearances in Ligue 1 this season.

Head coach Paul Clement told the club's official website: "Abdoul Camara is a player that we have been monitoring closely and we're pleased to welcome him to Derby County.

"He has performed very well in Ligue 1 this year and we feel that he has the right attributes to make an impact in a Derby shirt. I am sure he will settle in well and be an important part of the squad in the second half of the season and into the future."

Camara made his debut for Guinea at the Africa Cup of Nations in 2012 and went on to earn 10 caps.
