Barry Bannon joins on a months loan

Nigel Clough has moved to fill the gaps in Derby County's midfield by signing Aston Villa's 19 year-old star Barry Bannon on an initial months loan.

The Rams have lost three first team midfielders during the last few weeks, two of which will miss the entire season, so the aquisition of the Villa youngster will fill a few gaps. If both sides are agreeable the loan may be extended to a season long deal...
