Ozoh began his journey in England after joining Palace’s academy at age eight, signing professional terms in August 2022. He made history early by becoming the [youngest-ever Premier](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/news/national-team-news/akor-adams-vows-to-do-his-bit-as-super-eagles-chase-world-cup-spot/) League player for Crystal Palace at just 17. Last season he featured 12 times for Palace, with nine appearances in the Premier League. +

Selecting Derby County was a deliberate choice. Palace viewed the East Midlands club, recently promoted back to the Championship, as the ideal environment for his development. Manager Paul Warne’s style and a strong platform for academy graduates made Derby stand out. +
+
Ozoh is now set to wear the iconic number 4 shirt at Pride Park, previously donned by Super Eagles midfielder Blessing Kaku. He has already made his debut appearance in a pre‑season friendly. [ +We welcome the move by Derby County to bring in David Ozoh. From our standpoint, this is a smart loan arrangement that prioritises talent growth over short‑term gain. At Derby, Ozoh is likely to receive regular playing time, which is vital at this stage of his career. + +Palace’s decision to send him to Derby reflects a considered development strategy](https://www.yohaig.ng/recommends/1xbet/). The Championship, known for its physical and tactical demands, will test Ozoh’s adaptability and maturity. Derby’s supportive coaching environment offers a suitable stage for him to refine his strengths. +
+
His Nigerian heritage adds an international dimension. As one eligible for England, Spain, and Nigeria, Ozoh represents the increasing trend of multi-national talents rising through English systems. If nurtured, he could emerge as a midfield option for the Super Eagles in the future. +

Ongoing first-team exposure, coupled with responsibility of a legacy jersey number, suggests Derby expect a serious contribution. His debut in pre-season already indicated readiness to adapt. Now comes the real challenge: consistency in a competitive Football League. +
+
We regard this as a promising partnership. For Ozoh, Derby is more than a loan—it’s an opportunity to transition from potential to performance. For Derby, it is an [investment](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/football-history/mikel-leads-nigerian-earnings-ranks-6th-in-africa-richest-footballers/) in youth with high upside. We believe this symbiosis could shape the next stage of his emerging career. +
