Tuesday 1 September 2015 18:25, UK
Derby have beaten the transfer deadline to sign midfielder Bradley Johnson from Norwich.
A statement on the club's Twitter feed, posted shortly after the 6pm cut-off point, revealed the 28-year-old's arrival on a permanent, four-year contract.
Sky sources say the fee for the player, who was Norwich's player of the year last season, is in the region of £6m.
Jacob Butterfield signed earlier on deadline-day, and the Johnson deal takes Derby's tally of summer signings to nine.
Boss Paul Clement said: "Being able to bring Bradley to Derby represents a major coup for the football club.
