Derby County manager Liam Rosenior has backed Lewis Dobbin to be ‘worth the wait’ after the Everton forward signed on-loan on Wednesday evening.
The Rams fought off a host of competition from League One and Championship rivals to secure a deal for the 19-year-old, following a breakthrough year in which the teenager made his Premier League debut and scored six goals in 18 Premier League 2 appearances.
And Derby boss Rosenior - speaking before Saturday’s game against Charlton Athletic where Dobbin could make his debut - explained the reasons for his excitement at having the Blues striker on board at Pride Park this season, adding his thanks that Frank Lampard and the club decided Derby were the right club.
