Bradley Johnson back with Derby County in academy coaching role
Former Derby County midfielder Bradley Johnson has returned to the club in a coaching role within their academy.
Johnson, 36, will also be eligible to appear as an over-age player for their under-21 side in Premier League 2.Last season Johnson made 45 appearances for MK Dons and was named interim boss for a Carabao Cup tie against Leicester City in December."As an experienced player across both the Premier League and EFL throughout his career, Bradley has significant experience that he can pass on to our Academy players, primarily the Under-21s," said Rams academy manager Matt Hale.
"This can come in many different ways: by driving standards, setting an example every single day or simply having discussions with the players both in training and match situations. He also has a clear understanding of what is required and expected as a player to play for Derby County at first-team level."
