time on loan at Ewood Park.<\/p>\n<p>In total, he made 25 appearances in all competitions for the Lancashire outfit, scoring once in a 2-0 home win over Luton Town back in December.<\/p>\n<p><img

when he made the move to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/derby-county\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Derby<\/a> earlier this year, at a time when Blackburn occupied a Championship play-off place.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time the Rams found themselves fighting to avoid relegation from the Championship, with the appointment of the 45-year-old ultimately helping them stay up on the final day.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/blackburn-rovers\/\" target=\"_blank\"

be focused on improving his squad at Pride Park, with <strong>Football Insider<\/strong> reporting earlier this summer that <a

of Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez<\/a>, the 22-year-old is unlikely to add too many more appearances to his tally in the coming campaign.<\/p>\n<p>He will therefore be keen to secure a loan move this summer that allows him to play regularly over the next 12 months.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to his spell with Blackburn, the left-back had also gained senior experience during loan spells with Bolton Wanderers and Dundee FC in the previous two seasons.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Related Posts<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(Credit: Getty Images and Imago) Sat 21 June 2025 13:24, UK Derby
