Local lad Harry Evans joined Derby County’s youth set-up at the age of six and was awarded a two-year scholarship with the Rams ahead of the 2021/22 campaign.
The youngster made seven appearances in the Under-18s’ Premier League - North campaign, while he also stepped up to the Under-21s to play five times in Premier League 2 - Division 1 before the end of the season.
In 2022/23 he ramped up his development further by making 18 appearances in Premier League 2 and he also penned professional terms during the campaign.
He also had a couple of spells out on loan in local non-league football with United Counties League Premier Division North side Melton Town in the 2022/23 campaign to gain match experience.
