Six Derby County players who didn't leave the club in January but could this summer
Derby County finished the January transfer window by adding four signings to their squad as they did their final business for the season.
The Rams kicked off their business with the signing of Lars-Jorgen Salvesen from Viking FK before they swooped to sign Matt Clarke from Middlesbrough for a nominal fee on a deal until the end of the season.
After Eiran Cashin left for Brighton for a fee of £9m, Derby then made their biggest outlay of the window when they forked out £4m to sign Salvesen's Viking FK team-mate and centre-back Sondre Langas.

It was then rounded off by the arrival of Harrison Armstrong from Everton on a loan deal until the end of the season with the midfielder set to make his bow against Norwich City today.
There were other departures too with James Collins joining Lincoln City on a permanent deal while Sonny Bradley left for Wycombe Wanderers on loan until the end of the campaign.
But now the window has shut, Derby will soon start to focus on the summer and there are six players whose current deals expire in the summer but stayed with the club during the window. Here DerbyshireLive brings you the rundown on the players that Derby will have to make a decision on at the end of the campaign.
Kane Wilson
The right-back is out of contract in the summer, but has been a key performer for Derby this season.
Is currently out injured with a hamstring problem but his quality out wide has been missed by Derby in recent weeks after coming off in the game against Sunderland. Has made 25 appearances in all competitions this term.
Liam Thompson
The academy graduate has played 20 games for Derby this season in all competitions, but is out of contract at the end of the season.
Has struggled to nail down a first-team place on a consistent basis but has been used from the bench.
Craig Forsyth

Rohan Luthra

Conor Washington
The striker has yet to kick a ball in the Championship this season not helped by injuries. He is currently working his way back to fitness, but he has been a signing that just has not worked out.
Has made just 22 appearances since signing for the club in the summer of 2023. Is out of contract in the summer.
Tom Barkhuizen
