The Rams are said to be very close to signing Brazilian born, American International midfielde,r Benny Feilhaber.

Feilhaber is 22 years old and is currently playing in the Bundersleague with SV Hamburg. His agaent, Henner Janzen, insists that a deal to bring the player to Derby is very close and only minor details need to be attended to. Henner went on to indicate that his client would be signing on a three year deal.

Benny is in fact Brazilian by birth, coming into the world on the 19th January 1985 in Rio De Janiero. H stand 5 ft 9 inches tall and is currently wanted by no less than four other German clubs.

One piece of trivia that could be very apt is a tattoo on Benny's arm that reads "Per Ardva ed astra" which means Through adversity to the stars. Will Benny be a star of the Premiership? Or even Derby County, we wait to find out.
