Derby County forward Nick Blackman has joined Spanish side Sporting Gijon on loan.
The 28-year-old appeared for the Rams in pre-season but has not played a competitive game for his parent club for more than a year.
Blackman joined Derby from Reading in 2016, but scored just one goal in 26 first-team appearances before spending the 2017-18 season with Israeli side Maccabi Tel Aviv.
"Derby County would like to wish Nick every success in his latest loan move," the club said in a statement.
Gijon finished fourth in the Spanish second division last season but missed out on promotion through the playoffs after losing to Real Valladolid in the semi-finals.
