Derby County complete signing of Andre Wisdom on loan


Championship outfit Derby County have completed the signing of Liverpool defender Andre Wisdom on loan for the rest of the season.

The England Under-21 international will spend the rest of the season with Derby as he tries to earn himself some first team football experience.


Wisdom finds himself down the pecking order at the Reds following the summer signings of defenders Aly Cissokho, Kolo Toure, Tiago Llori and Mamadou Sakho.


"Andre is a very good and a promising player who we're delighted to welcome to Derby County," Derby manager Steve McClaren said.


"Liverpool obviously think a lot of him but he's at the stage of his development where he needs to play some first-team games, and we're delighted they see Derby as the place to do that."


Wisdom came through the ranks of the Liverpool youth academy last season.
