Chris Hutchings has been formally named new assistant manager at Derby County.

Hutchings worked with Rams boss Paul Jewell at Bradford and Wigan, where he took charge for six months in 2007.

"He is a people's person - tactically, there are few better than him," Jewell told the club's official website.

Hutchings said: "The ingredients are all here and I'm looking forward to getting back to work."
