Everton and Burnley among clubs across Europe interested in signing former Derby youngster Archie Brown... who has made a name for himself in Switzerland since leaving Pride Park

Everton and Burnley are among the clubs keeping an eye on former Derby youngster Archie Brown.

Defender Brown has been making a name for himself abroad since leaving the Pride Park club in 2021 having come through their academy.

And the English left-back is now back on the radar of sides in England as well as from Germany's Bundesliga and Italy’s Serie A.

The 21-year-old joined Swiss side Lausanne from Derby and his form during two seasons there earned him a summer move to Belgian’s Gent.

Until a recent injury, Brown was an ever-present following his arrival in August and his reputation is on the rise in Belgium having been a standout performer for the side who are third in the league and also through to the last-16 of the Europa Conference League.
