Derby County have completed the signings of Crewe Alexandra pair John Brayford and James Bailey for undisclosed fees.

Twenty-two-year-old defender Brayford and midfielder Bailey, 21, have both penned three-year contracts to seal their switches to Pride Park.

Boss Nigel Clough told his club's official website: "We are delighted to bring John and James in - both are young players who have a very bright future in the game.

"We've made no secret of the fact we have been interested in John for some time, so to finally land him is very satisfying.

"I know all about John having worked with him at Burton Albion and I have no doubt he will be able to make the step up to the Championship.

"James is a determined midfielder who has been impressive every time we have watched him and we're delighted he has also joined us."
