Richard Keogh Out for Up to 15 Months After Sustaining Knee Injury in Car Crash

Derby County captain Richard Keogh could be out of action until 2021, as the extent of the knee injury suffered in a car crash last week became apparent on Monday.

Keogh was a back-seat passenger in an incident last week, as a car containing Derby stars Tom Lawrence and Mason Bennett was involved in a collision with a lamppost on the A6, on the way back from a team bonding session.

Lawrence and Bennett were both arrested and later charged for drink driving, and things went from bad to worse when it emerged that 34-year-old Keogh was badly injured in the incident.
