David Nugent could complete a move to Derby County today.
The Sun says Nugent is sweating on a pay-off from Portsmouth which will allow him to make a £6m switch to Derby.
The Premier League new boys have agreed to pay Pompey what they forked out to Preston for Nugent in July.
The striker, 22, is desperate to link up with Rams boss Billy Davies again, who managed him at Deepdale. But Nugent wants to sort out some financial details before he moves.
