Should run his contract down IMO. He's already stuck there this season as it is, with no one from the leagues above willing to take a chance. Big risk of him being stuck at the club longer term if he signs a new contract.

The most frustrating thing is they are playing him at RB


Best thing for him is just wait it out till January. If any of the rumours of interest in Germany is true then they can approach him with contract offers. Derby won't want to lose him for peanuts so teams in England could get him handy enough in January.

Derby don't wanna sell players cause they've a small enough squad and are only allowed sign free transfers and players on loan. They'll likely get decent compensation if he joins another English club next summer on a free but could do an Ebosele. They might have to sell him come January rather than risk him going abroad for peanuts.

More stupidity than admirable imo. Unless he has it put in his contract that he can leave if an offer of £2m or something is made.

He's got no agent listed so could be a family member he has representing him like Collins does.

If the loyalty is only to ensure that Derby get a reasonable fee for him and he's been assured he will be allowed leave should a decent offer arrive, then the contract renewal is admirable. I am surprised however that his agent hasnt been able to muster interest, if nothing else the lad has a great engine and attitude - I'd love to see him go to a club who might try and improve the technical aspects of his game. 

He is absolutely a cut above League One level and I'm not sure a further year at Derby, even assuming they have a successful year, which they should, will be any good for his development. 

Having said that, if they go up, which is likely, then we could be looking at the captain of a Championship club going places with a L1 winners medal in his back pocket, so who knows. There's no guarantees that a move to a lower end PL club right now would leave him in a better place.

Yeah loyalty is going to affect his career. Derby happy to use him as a workhorse to plug any hole they have and clearly don't care about his development. You aren't telling me that no champ team wouldn't pick him up on a free next summer and offer him good game time in central midfield.

If he's happy as a league one right back fair enough. He will probably still be one of our first options for a while. But if we get a few more midfielders coming through he could find himself out of favour in a few years.

He's stalling his own career if so. It's like a worse version of Coleman not making the most of his form at Everton when he was the best right back in the league.
We're decent enough..

Still playing RB and I doubt they'll bring in another RB since he's playing well there. Half a season there won't be the end of the world and might be a plus for the international team with him now showing he can do a job at RWB like Browne showed he could back in June

Can't see him moving until January. When all the talk was Derby needed to sell to raise funds to see the season out they held off on selling Knight.

They'd probably get about £2m in compensation if he moves to an English. They'd be in no rush to sell him cheap just yet and clubs can wait a few months and try get him for £2m in Jan than £5m now.

There's 2 and a half weeks till the window closes, Derby don't look that great even league 1. 

He might stay till January to see where Derby are in the league with a view to be back in the championship next year.

Cant remember when he signed his last Derby contract


contract up at end of this season per transfermarkt
