Derby County Under-23s goalkeeper Sam French has joined non-league side Hyde United on loan until mid-December.


The 18-year-old will spend the next month with the Tigers, who currently sit 10th in the BetVictor Northern Premier League.

Last month, French penned a seven-day emergency loan with Sky Bet League 2 side Stevenage, where he was on the bench in their 1-0 league victory over Morecambe.

French was part of Justin Walker’s Under-18s Premier League winning side last season, making 24 starts during the campaign..
