Sunderland striker Ryan Noble has joined npower Championship Derby on a month's loan.
The 20-year-old has scored 13 times in just nine appearances for the Black Cats' reserves to date this season and figured in two Barclays Premier League games as a substitute.
Noble had a spell at Pride Park last season but returned after just one game because of injury.
The Rams currently lie in eighth place in the Championship table, just two points adrift of the play-off places.
Noble is the third Sunderland youngster to head off on loan this week with Jordan Cook and Louis Laing joining Carlisle and Wycombe respectively.

Jonny it wont be a permanent move its being done to get the lad some firsyt team football and to build him up stamina wise after his back injury. he is a really good prospect and along side whickam would make a deadly striking dou So i cant agree about your opinion of whickham as i think your'e totally wrong (again )
Yes Jonny very brave direct fast and exciting to the eye,a great signing,lets hope we can make it permanent
Well said jonny he is an exciting young striker,very brave and puts himself about,great signing for us
Good player, I watched him against us in the reserves, he was head and shoulders above everyone else on the pitch. If he impresses. he could make the move permanent. Two similar clubs so Noble will be no worse off but I can't help but think Sunderland have got the shyty end of the stick by prefering Whickam!!
