Derby County manager Wayne Rooney says there have been “positive” developments this week in the planned takeover of the club.
The ex-England star said things were looking good for the acquisition by American entrepreneur Chris Kirchner who was earlier this month named as the preferred bidder to take the Rams out of administration.
Administrators were brought in at the Championship club last autumn after it struggled to find investors. Then owner Mel Morris said he had no choice but to make the "gut-wrenching" decision over its future.
