Derby County's head of academy recruitment, Chris Perkins, is no longer in his post. It is understood he has joined Premier League side Everton, linking up with Marcel Brands and Carlo Ancelotti on Merseyside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Ram Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Good news that bigger, richer clubs are paying attention to our academy. Having someone taken off you like this is a sign that you’re doing something right. Hopefully it’s the infrastructure that’s doing so well for us, not Perkins.

ilkleyram Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Well done Chris Perkins. Now, maybe, his replacement at one of the top academies in the country will be even better than Chris Perkins was at academy recruitment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van der MoodHoover Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Article says that the couple of chaps who report to him are the ones who are responsible for recruiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gccrowdpleaser Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 He's been serving a one year notice period and this was agreed last summer. The notice period goes to show how highly he is thought of but also decent planning in terms of getting in a replacement. There are two other guys that work as local scouts so it would seem sensible that they have identified a new guy to bring in over that year period and the current situation allows them to let him join Everton a few weeks early.

On the plus side, we probably have a queue of 6 years of his signings in the 13 to 18 year age group waiting to break through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab a dab doo Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Its very disappointing to lose Mr Perkins but we must all thank and applaud him for all his efforts on behalf of the club. As already stated the club were aware of his depart nearly a year ago, so a line of succession must be already in place, and hopefully this will have led to a seamless transition. I am sure the Academy coaching and recruitment staff are not based solely around one person. They will be a collective team who discuss, comment and have input into decisions when closely working together. Premiership club's wanting to take our staff must be looked upon as source of pride, that they value the work our club are doing. I hope Mel has got a little bit compensation, as well from Everton for this 'transfer' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve How Hard? Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 To be fair to Everton they were in desperate need of a shake up in their youth recruitment if Kieran Dowell was the extent of talent that they were currently producing. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Keiran Dowell is one who they are busy trying to find a place because he's not quite good enough for that level. He's still a decent footballer.

He's still a decent footballer. He was probably a bit unlucky that we were still trying to find an identity as a team whilst he was here. However, I felt his body language was very poor and it came across as though he was just going through the motions. Which may explain the early ending of his loan period.
