Derby County reveal that they have put as many as seven players on the transfer list.

Derby County manager Nigel Clough has insisted that it is "nothing personal" after he decided to put seven of his squad on the transfer list.

Theo Robinson and Nathan Tyson are joined on the list by Frank Fielding, Adam Legzdins, James O'Connor, Tom Naylor and James Bailey, with Clough believing that each player would have more opportunities if they left Pride Park.

The 47-year-old told the club's official website: "As is normally the case at the end of the season, we've sat down and reviewed where we're at and what we need moving forwards, and we don't see the seven lads featuring on a regular basis.

"It's nothing personal and there's been no fallings-out or anything like that, but we have to be honest and we don't see them figuring in our plans at this moment in time.

"They want to be playing first-team football as well and we have to be fair to them on that front, rather than keeping them hanging around on the off-chance we might have an injury or suspension in their particular area of the team."

The Rams finished in 10th place in the Championship table.
