Derby have signed Poland Under-21 international Krystian Bielik from Arsenal for an undisclosed fee.

PA understands the sum paid for the versatile defensive player, including add-ons in the deal, could become a club record for the Rams – eclipsing the £8million spent on signing striker Matej Vydra from Watford in 2016.

Bielik, who impressed during a loan spell at Charlton in League One last season, has agreed a five-year contract and could make his debut at Huddersfield on Monday.

“We’re very happy. He is a young player at the age of 21 and it is a permanent deal which I think is a very good investment for the club,” Derby boss Phillip Cocu told the club website.

Charlton Athletic’s Krystian Bielik during the Sky Bet League One Play-off final at Wembley Stadium, London.

“I am very happy he has joined the team. He will get better and develop, but for his age he is a very good player.”

Bielik, who can play as a centre-back or a defensive midfielder, becomes the fourth new arrival at Derby this summer, following Graeme Shinnie, Kieran Dowell and Matt Clarke to Pride Park.

The Rams completed a season-long loan deal for Brighton centre-half Clarke earlier on Friday.

The 22-year-old joined Brighton from Portsmouth on a four-year deal earlier this summer for a reported fee of £3.5m, becoming Graham Potter’s first signing as Albion boss.

However, Potter sees the best way for him to continue his development is in the Championship with the Rams.
