The Rams are stepping up their search for players for the coming season and are rumoured to be contemplating a late bid to land Alefe Santos from Bristol Rovers.
Alefe is a 19 year-old winger and born in Brazil. He was thought to be heading for the Premiership with Hull City but he couldn't agree terms and that has alerted the Rams to a possible move
Derby Could have competition for the signiture however, as Celtic are also said to be interested in taking Alefe North of the border.
