Efe Ambrose made to wait for Derby debut

Nigerian defender Efe Ambrose will have to wait before he plays his first game for Frank Lampard’s Derby County after joining the championship side.

Efe Ambrose recently signed for Derby for the rest of the season after impressing Chelsea legend, Frank Lampard who is in charge during his trials according to reports.

Although the deal is yet to be confirmed by any official statement from Derby County the deal is a done deal.

“I signed a short term deal with Derby County that runs till the summer, said Efe to ScoreNigeria.

“I am delighted to join this ambitious club.I am honored and it is a privilege to play under a legend like Frank Lampard.

“The club’s target is to get the automatic promotion or playoff spot, which I pray that I could be able to play a big part of that by helping them achieve this by God’s grace,” he said.

Today, while Derby County continued their push for qualification into Premier League Efe Ambrose was missing in action as Lampard boys were forced to a 1-1 draw at Ipswich.

Efe could be in line for his first Derby game this weekend when they travel to the Amex Stadium to play Brighton in the FA Cup 5th Round.
