Derby County have appointed England Under-17s manager John Peacock as their new first-team coach.

The 59-year-old has left his role with the FA to replace Paul Simpson at the iPro Stadium.

Peacock previously worked as Derby's academy director from 1998 to 2002.

"I am delighted to welcome John Peacock onto my coaching staff," Derby head coach Paul Clement told the club's official website.

"He is an excellent coach and has a wealth of experience, having worked at the Football Association for a considerable amount of time.

"He is a key signing for me and I am really pleased that we have been able to attract such a highly-skilled coach to my backroom team."

Peacock becomes the latest addition to Clement's coaching staff, following the arrival of goalkeeping coach Pascal Zuberbuhler earlier.
