Derby interested in Dutch star as Killen attracts attention

Championship side Derby County are interested in signing ADO Den Haag full-back Danny Buijs. County have been tracking the Dutchman all season and could make a summer move for the former-Feyenoord star.

Derby manager Nigel Clough has even been to Holland to watch the star personally. Derby have former-Dutch star Johnny Metgod on their coaching staff and he admits that Buijs would be a very versatile signing.

Metgod revealed: “I worked with him at Feyenoord. He can play right-back or in a 4-4-2 he can even push on into midfield,” County boss Clough will want to strengthen his squad in the summer in a bid to challenge for promotion next season.

Meanwhile Middlesbrough striker Chris Killen is attracting the interest of some top Championship clubs. High-fliers West Brom and Nottingham Forest are believed to be tracking the 28 year-old. The New Zealand international only joined Boro in January but he only signed a six-month contract.

With his contract expiring in the summer there is now speculation that he could leave the Riverside Stadium for nothing. Boro have yet to offer Killen a new contract but the striker wouldn’t be short of options come the summer.

Top Italian sign Palermo are believed to ready to make a summer transfer move for Blackburn midfielder Morten Gamst Pedersen. The Norwegian international is a free agent in the summer when his contract with the Premier League club expires.

Scottish giants Celtic were believed to be ready to make a summer move for him as well before the departure of manager Tony Mowbray in midweek. He is also being tracked by Turkish side Fenerbahce. Blackburn are already holding contract talks with the 28 year-old.

He has been at club for six years since joining Rovers from Norwegian giants Tromso. He has made over a 150 appearances for the club, scoring 27 goals in that time. However speculation has increased in recent weeks that he will be leaving Ewood Park this summer.

Palermo have emerged as the favourites to sign Pedersen, as they are currently in the Champions League spots in Serie A. That means they would be able to provide the Norwegian with a bumper contract next summer.

Gamst Pedersen told NTB: “Rune (Hauge) takes care of the negotiations, I focus on the football. That is the best way and it’s going well at the moment.”

QPR set to sign defensive duo

QPR look set to complete the loan signing of Portsmouth defender Dusko Tosic. However before the deal can be completed they will need permission from the football league. If they do get approval the Serbian international will stay with QPR for the remainder of the season.

The 25 year-old defender only joined Portsmouth in February after being released from Bundesliga side Werder Bremen. However Pompey’s perilous financial position meant that the Premier League kept hold of the player’s registration. The Premier League then agreed to allow Pompey his registration if they allowed Tosic to join a lower league team.

Tosic told the clubs official website: “I am delighted to be here. All I want to do is play games and hopefully I will get that chance here with Queens Park Rangers.

Meanwhile the Championship side have offered a contract to former-Fulham full-back Moritz Volz. The 27 year-old left Craven Cottage last summer when his contract expired. Since then he has been content with media work while waiting for his next move.

Volz was invited to have a trial at the club and he impressed Rangers boss Neil Warnock. He could now sign a contract until the end of the campaign.

Riera thinking over Russian move

Liverpool winger Albert Riera could be offered an escape route from the Merseyside club with a loan move to the Russian Premier League. The Spanish international was placed on the transfer list for criticising Reds boss Rafa Benitez.

He referred to Liverpool as ‘a sinking ship’ and accused his boss of being a poor communicator. He has admitted that a move to Russia would be a attractive proposition. The Russian transfer window doesn’t shut until 8th April and he could be set for a loan move to Spartak Moscow.

He told Russian Sports newspaper Sport Express: “Russia presents a very interesting option for me,”

“For one, it’s the only prestigious league in Europe where the transfer window is open. And secondly, if I play there regularly, I may be able to earn my ticket to the World Cup in South Africa.”

Riera seems to be hoping that a deal can be completed to end his Mersey misery. Since his arrival at Anfield he has struggled for form and has failed to gain regular first team football with the Reds. He is expecting to exit the club on a permanent basis in the summer but a temporary move seems best for both parties involved.

The 21 year-old has now made five appearances for the first team and started his first game against Sunderland last October.

Meanwhile Liverpool have rubbished reports that midfielder Alberto Aquilani is set to leave the club this summer. The Italian international has struggled with injuries this season since his £20million move from Roma last summer.

He has received fierce criticism from the media and a section of the fans. However his agent insist he will not be making a quick return to Serie A this summer. Franco Zavaglia told Tuttomercatoweb.com: “False news has been circulated around,”

Robins sign Wolves striker

Bristol City have signed Wolves giant striker Stefan Maierhofer on a month’s loan. The 27 year-old Austrian international striker has been brought in to replace Wolves teammate Chris Iwelumo, who had had a successful spell at Ashton Gate. The Scottish striker was recalled by Wolves and the Premier League side allowed the Robins to sign Maierhofer.

He will go straight into the squad for Bristol City’s clash on Tuesday at Plymouth Argyle. Maierhofer has struggled to win a regular first team place at Molineux after making a summer move from Rapid Vienna. He has made just two starts and seven substitute appearances.

He made a big impression on his debut scoring against Blackburn after coming off the substitute bench. However he hasn’t made an appearance for Wolves since December and a run out at Manchester United’s Old Trafford.

He has been squeezed out the squad by the presence of Kevin Doyle, Sam Vokes, Sylvan Ebanks-Blake and Andy Keogh. Wolves boss Mick McCarthy is hoping the move will help Maierhofer get some regular first team football.

McCarthy revealed: “This is a good move for Stefan and offers him the chance to enjoy some regular football,”
