Derby County are reportedly interested in signing out-of-favour Wolves striker Sasa Kalajdzic this summer.
That is according to reports from his native Austria, with Kalajdzic expected to leave Molineux before the end of the transfer window after being deemed surplus to requirements by Cesar Peixoto.
Despite coming off the bench to score the goal that sent Austria through to the knockout stage at the 2026 World Cup this summer, Kalajdzic has found himself training with the under-21s since returning to the West Midlands.
Reports suggest that Kalajdzic is the subject of interest from clubs from both both Italy and Germany, in addition to his home country, but that he could be swayed by Derby.
Austrian outlet Ligaportal claim that the Rams have made enquiries around the 6ft 7in striker, but that they would be favour a loan due to their financial situation.
John Eustace's side have endured a difficult start to the Championship season after losing 2-1 to Charlton on the opening weekend before being held to a draw at home to Cardiff on Saturday.
Patrick Agyemang netted 10 league goals last season but suffered a serious Achilles injury in April which has left Derby in the hunt for additional attacking options this summer.
Wolves are understood to prefer moving Kalajdzic on permanently as he enters the final year of his contract at the club.
The club paid £15million to sign him in the summer of 2022 but he subsequently suffered an ACL tear on his Premier League debut that saw him out for nine months.
Kalajdzic spent part of the 2023-24 season on loan in the Bundesliga with Eintracht Frankfurt before spending the 2025-26 campaign with LASK where he won both the league and cup double.
