Derby County could face another points deduction as fresh twist emerges

Derby County have already been hit with two big points deductions - and a third could be on its way next season.

The Rams were docked 12 points after entering administration last September. Then, in November, a further nine-point handicap was handed down after they admitted to breaching the EFL's profitability and sustainability rules over the sale of Pride Park.

Now, a fresh report claims that another points deduction could be on the way next season.

Administrators Quantuma have set a deadline of today (Friday) for takeover offers to be submitted with three parties said to be in contention to buy the East Midlands outfit.
