Phil Jagielka is signing for Stoke City as a free agent after leaving Derby County.
The 39-year old was initially due to be offered an 18 month extension at Derby ahead of the expiry of his contract next week, but with the EFL putting them under a transfer embargo he was unable to re-sign.
The veteran centre-back is now signing for Stoke, who added Taylor Harwood Bellis on loan from Manchester City this week and are trying to sign Chelsea midfielder Lewis Baker.
A Derby statement said: 'Derby County would like to place on record its sincere thanks to Phil for his commitment and efforts both on and off the pitch whilst with the club and wish him every success in his future endeavours.
