Derby County, an English Championship side, is the latest team considering a move for Will Ferry, a 25-year-old, newly-capped Republic of Ireland international. The Rams are looking for a left-sided option, have Ferry among their summer transfer targets, and have compiled numerous scouting reports on him. They face competition from Championship rivals Blackburn Rovers and Charlton, who are described as long-term admirers and remain interested.

Additionally, Major League Soccer side Vancouver Whitecaps had a six-figure bid for the player rejected last summer, and it is reported that this possibility remains open. United are considered likely to sell the former Southampton player as he is now in the final year of his contract. Ferry joined Dundee United in July 2024. According to Transfermarkt, he has a current market value of €1.20m.
