Transfer interest is building around Max O'Leary, with Derby County understood to be weighing-up a move for the Bristol City goalkeeper. While there has been no official bid as yet, the club may act swiftly if they decide to pursue the deal before the transfer window slams shut. Derby County remain optimistic, but the deal is not without hurdles. Blackburn and QPR continue to monitor developments and could yet re-enter the race if negotiations stall or valuation gaps remain unresolved. Defensively, Derby County are sitting around the league average this season, at 1.35 goals conceded per game. Someone like Max O'Leary could keep them steady but also raise the level when it matters most. Bristol City have also been linked with Tomi Horvat and George Earthy while Derby County are reportedly monitoring Oscar Fraulo.
