Derby County vs Oxford United LIVE: Championship latest score, goals and updates from fixture
Follow live coverage as Derby County face Oxford United in the Championship today.
An increasingly competitive second tier in English football remains an intense and exciting competition, with the prize of a place in the Premier League on offer at the end of the season.
Relegation from the top flight last term means Luton, Burnley and Sheffield United are all back in the second tier this term and will be expected to push for play-off spots again at least, but so too will Norwich City, an improving Coventry and beaten play-off finalists Leeds United. At the other end of the table, Wayne Rooney is aiming to revive Plymouth's fortunes after they narrowly avoided relegation last year, with Portsmouth and Derby the teams promoted from League One along with play-off final winners Oxford.

Man Utd star working behind the scenes to secure Bryan Mbeumo transfer
Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo is set to be a wanted man this summer after a terrific season that saw him score 20 goals in the Premier League and Manchester United are said to be leading the chase Manchester United star Andre Onana is reportedly trying to convince Cameroon team-mate Bryan Mbeumo to join Ruben Amorim's side amid competition from Tottenham. Mbeumo is in high demand this summer after his best ever season for Brentford. He was the club's star man as he scored 20 goals in the Premier League and now could be set for a big move. United have emerged as the favourites for his signature but after his manager Thomas Frank joined Tottenham, he is said to be 'intrigued' by a switch to north London. It's understood Mbeumo is still "leaning towards" a move to Old Trafford as Amorim bids to overhaul his struggling squad that finished 15th last season, with Matheus Cunha already joining the club. And according to the Manchester Evening News, Onana is doing his best to persuade Mbeumo to pick United over Tottenham, with the pair sharing a close relationship from their time in the Cameroon team. Mbeumo and Onana have been international team-mates since the former began playing for the side in 2022. Mbeumo has gone on to pick up 22 caps, while Onana has 48. United have already had a bid of around £60million rejected by Brentford for Mbeumo, while Mirror Football understands Tottenham have bid around £70m and are determined to reunite the player with Frank. Brentford could be tempted to cash in on Mbeumo while they can given he is out of contract next season - though there is an option to extend his deal until 2027. The player himself spoke for the first time since rumours began over his future but did not wade into the speculation, instead opting to discuss Frank and their time together at Brentford. "He (Frank)'s done so much for me. He literally trusted me from the start," he told Sky Sports. "I think he developed the team so well. He developed me as a human and a player as well. "So I can only wish him all the best, and I'm sure he's going to do well. I can only wish him all the best and I'm sure he's going to do well." He added: "He knows everything; he's really smart and knows what he wants to bring the team, how he wants them to play. He's been fantastic for Brentford." When asked about the increasing amount of stories about his future, Mbeumo added: ""It is a bit new for me, I would say! I think it can be the life of a footballer and you need to accept it."

Former Chelsea star compares Estevao Willian to Barcelona superstar Lamine Yamal
There are great expectations for in-coming Chelsea player Estevao Willian and excitement is not going to die down now he has been compared to Barcelona superstar Lamine Yamal. 18-year-old Estevao signed for Chelsea from Brazilian side Palmeiras last year but is only due to join the Blues after the Club World Cup this summer. The winger has already made a big splash in his home country and has won five caps for the Brazil senior side already, despite only turning 18 in April. Chelsea fans will be drooling over the prospect of Estevao lighting up Stamford Bridge and former Blues star Willian has only added to the hype. The 70-cap Brazil international compared Estevao's style to that of Barcelona and Spain winger Yamal and said they have similarly great potential. Wake up to find news on your club in your inbox every morning with Metro's Football Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your team in the link we'll send you so we can get football news tailored to you. 'Without a doubt, he has a lot of potential, a lot of quality,' Willian told ESPN Brasil. 'The player has the advantage of still being so young, but with great potential like Lamine Yamal, they have a similar style. 'I hope that he can be very successful here in England playing for Chelsea, he can win many titles, score a lot of goals with the Chelsea jersey and he will help to win titles over the years.' Chelsea paid an initial £29million for the teenager, but that fee could eventually rise to £57million if he meets a number of performance-related clauses. Willian expects the youngster to do well in the Premier League, but has warned him that it will take some time to adjust to the different conditions and style of play. 'My advice is that he dedicate himself to the fullest. In England, football is quite different to what he is used to,' said the 36-year-old. 'When he gets here I think he needs some extra work at the club. 'I'm sure he has a very good head. There's no need to argue about his quality, he has more than enough quality to play for a big club like Chelsea. But I hope he can adapt as quickly as possible and get into the style of play here to be very successful.' Willian would know about adjusting to English football, having made 339 appearances for Chelsea in all competitions, winning two Premier League titles, the FA Cup and Europa League with the Blues. Blues fans will have the chance to see Estevao in action this summer as he is with Palmeiras at the Club World Cup in America. Palmeiras have been placed in Group A of the competition alongside Al Ahly, Inter Miami and Porto. Chelsea meanwhile find themselves in Group D alongside ES Tunis, Los Angeles FC and Flamengo. The Brazilian team got their campaign underway on Sunday with a goalless draw with Porto, a match which Estevao started. There is a possibility Chelsea and Palmeiras can meet at the quarter-final stage of the Club World Cup. More Trending Should both progress as group winners or runners-up and beat their last 16 opponents, they are possible opponents for each other at the last eight stage. Those matches in question will take place on Friday 4 July in Philadelphia and Saturday 5 July in Atlanta. With Estevao registered for the Palmeiras squad, there would be nothing to stop him from lining up against the players he will be playing alongside side as early as next month. Estevao's agent Andre Cury said in April: 'Yes, he's arriving [at Chelsea] after the Club World Cup. He's a world-class player. Very good. A guy who's going to make history here.'

The Red Devils are already £62.5m down after buying Wolves star Matheus Cunha. And earlier this month they saw a £45m bid for Mbeumo knocked back by Brentford. But since then, much has changed. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL MOVING GINGERLY Angry Ginge calls ex-Man Utd star a 'TW*T' as he shows off gash on his leg The Bees have seen manager Thomas Frank depart for Tottenham as Ange Postecoglou's replacement. And he now wants to bring Mbeumo to north London in a big-money deal. As a result, United face a major fight to land the left-footer. But the Manchester Evening News claims Mbeumo still favours a move up north. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS And Amorim has goalie Onana to thank, as the flop has been spending his free time selling United's vision to Mbeumo. Both players are regulars for Cameroon's international side and have become firm friends over the years. Man Utd announce Matheus Cunha in huge £62.5m transfer 3 Onana remains convinced about Amorim's project despite question marks over his own future. And that has tipped the scales in United's favour, despite Spurs 'aggressively pursuing' Mbeumo as a marquee signing. Red Devils fans reacted to the news in hilarious style, with one declaring: 'It's the only good thing Onana's done for the club.' Another said: 'Love you Onana.' One noted: 'Onana doesn't know he's the first to leave.' Another added: 'He's probably not the best advert.' Mbeumo himself is remaining calm about the situation. When asked about his future while at the Canadian Grand Prix, he told Sky Sports: 'It's a bit new for me. I think it can be the life of a footballer and you need to accept it.'
