No fee was disclosed but local media reported that Derby paid an initial 5 million pounds for Lawrence, who scored 11 goals for Ipswich last season. The total value of the deal could rise to 7 million pounds, the reports said.

Leicester, who lost their Premier League opener 4-3 to Arsenal, host Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday.
