Derby County have announced the signing of former Crystal Palace midfielder Joe Ledley on a deal that runs out in January.

The 30-year-old midfielder left Selhurst Park over the summer and Ledley will now return to football in the Championship.

Ledley, who has been capped 73 times by the Welsh national team, grew up in the academy of hometown club Cardiff, before opting for a move to Scottish giants Celtic. Ledley spent four years at Celtic Park, racking up 10 Champions League appearances along the way.

After completing a £3m move back to England in 2014, the midfielder accumulated 96 appearances for the Eagles, scoring six times and assisting another two.
