Leon Best bound for Derby County?

Derby County could reportedly confirm the signing of Leon Best later today.

The Rams are believed to have been in talks with Blackburn Rovers regarding the 27-year-old's availability for the past few days.

Those discussions have now reached a conclusion, with the Republic of Ireland striker expected to sign a season-long loan deal at the iPro Stadium, according to the Derby Telegraph.

The report added that Best may link up with his new teammates at this morning's training session.
