Derby County Rejects Brighton's Bid for Eiran Cashin

Derby County defender Eiran Cashin is firmly not for sale, as the club has rejected a bid from Premier League side Brighton & Hove Albion. Despite Brighton's increased interest, including a second bid, Derby County officials have stated that Cashin is a crucial player for the team and is under contract until 2027. Cashin, who has made 20 appearances this season, returned to the squad after recovering from a hamstring injury but is now without his defensive partner Curtis Nelson, who is out for the season. The Rams, currently 19th in the Championship, view Cashin as integral to their efforts to maintain their league status. His performances have garnered attention, but Derby remains committed to keeping him through the transfer window. The club's stance has been reinforced by sources within the organization, emphasizing that Cashin's departure is not an option at this time.
