Derby have confirmed the loan signing of Danny Mills from Manchester City.

The former England international has joined the basement boys on a loan deal until the end of the season.

Mills is well down the pecking order at Eastlands and had only recently returned from a loan spell at Charlton.

Rams boss Paul Jewell has moved to bring the 30-year-old to Pride Park and he believes he will prove to be a valuable addition to his squad.

"Danny is joining us on loan until the end of this season and his experience and versatility will be invaluable to us," Jewell told the club's official website.

Highest level

"Danny has been playing at the highest level for a long time now, including a World Cup for England, so nothing will faze him.

"He is a hardened battler and will be great in the dressing room.

"With the injury problems we have at the moment Danny's versatility is also a big asset; he can play right back or left back."
