Jack Butland joins a months loan

Steve McClaren is set to sign Stoke City's England under-21 goalkeeper Jack Butland on loan.
 

McClaren, the Derby County manager, has moved for Butland after an injury to regular No 1 Lee Grant and expects to complete a deal later on Monday.
 

Butland, who was part of Gareth Southgate's under-21s team which secured qualification to Euro 2015 last week, should make his debut away at Blackpool on Tuesday night.
 

Stoke have been determined to loan out Butland to give him regular games as he is effectively the club's No 3 behind Asmir Begovic and Thomas Sorensen.
 

And with Grant struggling with an ankle problem, Butland is set for some much-needed game time in the Championship.

I highly doubt this. We'll see. 

 

Butland is a very gifted goalkeeper; the sort Steele could get the best out of and perhaps make better than Grant given time. However, Grant's experience is great and he's a very good goalkeeper.

 

The ankle injury seems blown out of proportion.

JACK Butland is on his way to Derby and Andy Wilkinson is trekking to Millwall after a busy morning of business at Stoke City.

Both have agreed 93-day loans that will see Butland make his Derby debut at Blackpool tomorrow and Wilkinson line up for Millwall at Wigan on the same night.

Derby moved quickly for Butland after regular number one Lee Grant suffered a fractured foot.

Stoke boss Mark Hughes was planning to play Butland in the Capital One Cup after he played and impressed in the two previous rounds.

 

But he now believes the prospect of three months of solid football in a team chasing promotion in the Championship will better serve the England under-21 keeper.

As I've said, off to Moor Farm in a bit so will have more info then, but does look like Grant is hurt & Butland will sign on-loan. #dcfcfans

 

At Moor Farm. Lee Grant not training ...

 

I thought Roos was good quality, but Mac/Steele must think he's not quite ready yet. Still Butland is some talent.

McClaren is taking nom chances and if I know him, he may try to wheedle Butland here permanently for the right money for next year. Length of loan will be the give away. If Roos plays then we only have one goalkeeper with no young player is going to jump at the chance of coming to Derby because they are so high in the league. Would be only faintly surprised if we won seven nil against Blackpool but my forecast is four nil. Young players talk among themselves and they know where to go on loan and where not to go. The future is bright, the future is black and white. COYR
