Derby County

Absolutely, Jonathan. Here's what BBC Radio Derby's Dominic Dietrich has been reporting:

Derby County are hoping to land FC Utrecht left-back Derry Murkin on a permanent deal.

The 26-year-old was born in Colchester but has never played in English football before.

He will bolster a key position for Rams boss John Eustace following Owen Beck's season-ending injury that finished his loan spell from Liverpool.

Millwall

Loving that positive attitude, Benjamin.

We're currently at £39.5m spent in this window with Birmingham being the most active; their acquisitions of Carlos Vicente and August Priske for a combined £13m has been the standout spend of the window.

This level is slightly above what most Championship clubs spend in January with the exception of January 2025, when £86.1m was the record outlay in winter.

Including business conducted in the summer that would take transfer spend in the Championship for 25-26 to £349m, easily the record for spending in a single season, surpassing, unsurprisingly, 24-25 which was £317m.

And that's of course before any additional business to be completed today.

It's worth remembering that Birmingham have also completed a permanent deal for winger Patrick Roberts so far today.

Norwich City

Rob Butler, BBC Radio Norfolk:

Norwich City look set to bolster their midfield options with QPR's Sam Field close to signing on loan.

The Canaries are desperate to bring in cover for influential midfielder Pelle Mattsson, who is out for several weeks with an ankle injury.

Field can also operate as a left-back which will be useful following the news that January loan signing Harry Amass could be on his way back to parent club Manchester United.

Amass sustained a serious hamstring injury in training last Friday and missed the 1-0 defeat at Middlesbrough.Striker Josh Sargent could still leave the Canaries in the coming weeks with MLS team Toronto his preferred destination and that league's transfer window is open until 26 March.

Norwich City's climb out of the Championship relegation zone has been helped by the signings of striker Mohamed Toure from Danish club Randers, winger Ali Ahmed, midfielder Paris Maghoma and left-back Harry Amass.

Australian international Toure put pen to paper yesterday having scored 11 goals in 39 league appearances for Randers since joining them in the summer of 2024.

It looks like there could also be another new arrival on the way - but do the Canaries still need more new faces? Let us know by using the 'Get Involved' button on this page.
