Wales international Joe Ledley signs for Derby on a free transfer

Derby have signed Wales international midfielder Joe Ledley on a free transfer.

The 30-year-old had been without a club since his release by Crystal Palace at the end of last season and has now joined the Rams on a short-term deal until January.

Ledley, who has made 507 career appearances and scored 64 goals, will be available for Derby's Championship clash with Birmingham on Saturday.

Gary Rowett's County side currently sit 15th in the table and were thumped 4-1 at Bristol City in their last game.
