£5m striker may be on the way to Pride Park

Rob Earnshaw the Rams Welsh International Target

Derby County are said to be on the brink of bringing Norwich City Striker Rob Earnshaw to Pride Park.
The Zambian born striker has tasted Premiership football before with West Bromwich Albion and he scored 17 goals for the Baggies in league and cup competition but couldn't hold down a regular place in the starting line up. He made just 22 starting line ups for WBA and came on 21 times as a substitute.

Earnshaw moved to Norwich on transfer deadline day January 31 2006, costing the Canaries £3.5m. Derby are expected to be paying around £5m for the Welsh International after putting 27 goals away in just 41 appearances for Norwich.

The 26 year old has 23 Welsh International caps and has scored 9 times for his country.
