Bird scored a spectacular goal in the Rams’ 2-0 victory over Carlisle United to cap off his stellar Derby career and guarantee the team’s promotion to the Championship.
The 23-year-old midfield metronome, who joined the team when he was 10 years old, will say his final farewell this summer. The midfield metronome was loaned back to Pride Park in January after signing for Bristol City.
Bird played 200 games since his debut in September 2017 and scored one of the most significant goals for the team this decade, so it was a suitable way to cap off his career.
Liam Thompson, Eiran Cashin, and Louie Sibley are the current stars of the team because of Bird’s ascent from the academy to the first team.
Darren Robinson, a fellow midfielder, is now aiming for comparable success.
