Wayne Rooney hopes to bolster his strike force this morning with the signing of Stoke City striker Lee Gregory.
Huddersfield have been pushing to sign the 32-year old but Rooney’s Derby are close to agreeing a loan with Stoke and former electrician Gregory is keen to join.
Gregory has struggled for game time under Michael O'Neill with Steven Fletcher chosen to lead the line and Tyrese Campbell emerging as a promising option.
