Loan striker on the way - i think !

DERBY County will dip into the loan market for a striker this week if Steve Davies' injury sidelines him for a lengthy spell.

Davies left Pride Park Stadium on crutches and with his left leg heavily strapped from thigh to ankle after Saturday's 2-1 win against Plymouth Argyle.

He went down early in the second half after his studs appeared to get caught in the turf.

It was unclear afterwards whether the 21-year-old had damaged his knee, his ankle or both.

Davies, clearly in pain, signalled to the bench immediately and the physio was quick to call for a stretcher.

Derby are already without centre-forward Chris Porter until Christmas following surgery on his hip and last week allowed Luke Varney to join Sheffield Wednesday on loan until the end of the year.

There is no recall clause on Varney.

That leaves Rob Hulse and Kris Commons as the only fit strikers if Davies is ruled out.

"If he is going to be out for any length of time we will need cover," said manager Nigel Clough.

"With only two fit strikers we will attempt straight away to get one in on loan this week.
