DERBY County are set to sign England international goalkeeper Jack Butland on an emergency loan as cover for the injured Lee Grant.
Grant picked up a knock during Saturday's 3-0 win at Reading.
And the Rams have moved to bring in Butland from Premier League side Stoke City ahead of Tuesday night's Championship fixture at Blackpool.
The 22-year-old has made two appearances for the Potters this season - both in the Capital One Cup.
The £4m signing from Birmingham City has one senior England cap to his name and was part of the England Under-21 side that qualified for the European Championships last week, along with Derby midfielder Will Hughes.
Butland has previously had loan spells at Cheltenham Town, Birmingham, Barnsley and Leeds United.
Grant's regular deputy Kelle Roos was back on the bench against Reading, having previously been out with a dead leg.
