Adam Legzdins out for two months

Derby County goalkeeper Adam Legzdins will miss two months of the season after undergoing an ankle operation.

Derby County goalkeeper Adam Legzdins has been ruled out of action for two months after undergoing an ankle operation.

The 26-year-old, who sustained the injury in training earlier this month, made 33 appearances for the Championship outfit last season.

"It's obviously a bit of a blow for Adam and he has undergone surgery now," Derby manager Nigel Clough told the club's official website.

"He has been a good understudy to Lee Grant this season and pushed him all the way since the beginning of pre-season, but Saul Deeney will now step up and do exactly the same during the next few weeks."

Derby currently sit 12th in the Championship table.
