Defender Danny Batth has rejected a contract offer from Derby County, indicating he is unlikely to remain with the club after his contract expires. Batth, who played a limited role last season due to injuries, appeared in just 12 matches after joining from Blackburn. Derby regarded the contract offer as fair, but Batth seemed set to pursue opportunities elsewhere. Head coach John Eustace, who relied on Batth previously, will need to consider replacements as the team prepares for the upcoming season.
