Johnny Russell pens new Derby County contract

By , Football League Editor
Derby County forward Johnny Russell signs a new three-year contract with the Championship outfit.

Scottish forward Johnny Russell has signed a new three-year contract with Championship side Derby County.

The new deal sees Russell, 27, extend his previous contract by a further year so that he will remain a Ram until at least the summer of 2018.

"Johnny is a popular member of the dressing room and he's also someone that the fans regard very highly, so it's pleasing to see him commit his future by signing the contract we put to him," Derby head coach Paul Clement told the club website.

Russell joined Derby from Dundee United two years ago and his form for the Rams last season saw him make his international debut for Scotland against England in November.

In total, Russell has scored 19 Derby goals in all competitions.
