Derby County With Serious Problems

The English Football League issued a statement that has left Derby County fans very concerned.

The club is desperately looking for a new owner and has been under management since September last year.

In addition, the club is under a transfer embargo since the summer and received a heavy blow with a reduction of 21 points this season which puts the club on the verge of relegation.

The club had to prove to the EFL that they would be able to meet their fixtures for the rest of the season and present an update on potential buyers.

But according to the EFL statement, the club is in great danger of going into liquidation.

Club administrators released a statement saying they are “”currently considering bids for the club, following deadlines set for offers at the end of last week.

“Further requests for clarity from prospective purchasers have been sought and we hope to be able to name the preferred bidder shortly.

“We are aware that everyone connected to the club wants to see its future resolved as soon as possible. Our duty is to ensure we secure the best long-term outcome for Derby County and we are working hard to achieve this objective.”

However, the EFL has stated that they have not received the information from the club. “The EFL notes the statement issued today by Quantuma (Derby County Administrators) but remains deeply concerned at the lack of any form of substantial progress in respect of the outstanding matters affecting the Club,” the statement reads.

“Despite requesting an update almost 48 hours ago, there has been no communication from the Administrators with correspondence and calls from the EFL going unanswered.

“As a result, the EFL still has no further information on the preferred bidder status or evidence of funding until the end of the season and has advised the Administrators that the lack of progress on these two critical issues, amongst others, is threatening the very future of Derby County Football Club.”
