Sam Szmodics is back at Pride Park — again. The attacking midfielder has rejoined Derby County on loan from Ipswich Town, reuniting with a club he already knows well after a previous loan spell there last season, according to BBC News.
The move sees Szmodics return to the Championship side he impressed with before, giving Derby a familiar and proven option going forward. Ipswich, who have retained his registration, will be hoping the switch helps him rediscover the form that made him a useful contributor during his time on loan at the club previously.
Details on the length of the new loan deal or any potential option to make it permanent have not been disclosed. Derby will be counting on Szmodics to hit the ground running given his prior experience in the squad, while Ipswich continue to manage their options elsewhere in the market as the transfer window progresses.
