Derby County have joined the race for Swansea City full-back Jazz Richards, according to the Sun.

The 24-year-old started his youth career with Cardiff, before joining Swansea in 2007, and he's since enjoyed loan spells with Crystal Palace, Huddersfield Town and the most recent with Fulham this season.

He's only ever managed 39 appearances for Swansea, and after their huge success in the Premier League this season, it now looks like he's surplus to requirements for Garry Monk.

This has prompted newly relegated QPR, Championship strugglers Fulham and play-off near misser's Derby County to show an interest in him, and are believed to be willing to pay £500,000 to secure his signature.

It's the second right back Derby County have been linked with this week, and it appears that Paul Clement may have highlighted that as a potential weakness in his starting eleven, as he was linked with a move for Aston Villa right back Matthew Lowton.
