Derby County Record signing Matej Vydra will not be heading to Germany this weekend with the squad. Derby County will be taking on Kaiserslautern in Germany on Saturday.
Vydra has not played in Derby County's last 2 friendlys due to a thigh strain what he picked up in Derby Countys first pre-season game.
Striker Nick Blackman is also doubtful for the friendly after picking up a knock .
When Derby County manager Gary Rowett asked about the striker :
"Matej Vydra might be another week away,"
Blackman also has a thigh strain.
"Nick picked up an injury a couple of days ago," Rowett added.
"He felt it after the Macclesfield game and we thought he might be OK for the Port Vale game.
"He has got a little bit of tightness in his quad. He was really keen to play. Having been out injured he wants to keep playing to keep getting his minutes on the pitch but we have to make decisions with a longer term view in these games."
Also George Thorne, Jason Shackell and Max Lowe are all still out with injuries
