RamsNews: Conor Doyle

Last pre-season Derby County took 19 year old Conor Doyle on trail and they were so impressed with his performances in pre-season friendly's that they decided to offer him his first professorial contract. Before the trail Doyle was studying at Creighton University so it was a life changing opportunity for him and he grabbed it in both hands.
This season Doyle has made 5 starts and 9 substitute appearances which the young American wasn't expecting as he said when answering a question about his involvement this season "more playing time than i'd every thought i'd get".
Not only has he been featuring for Derby he has also been away on international duty for USA U20 and made a big impact which impressed his American coaches.
He described his first season as "incredible" and said the only thing he could wish for now was his "first senior goal".
When talking about next season the 19 year old said that he wants to "push for a position in the team" and that Derby could "push for the play-off's".
I believe Doyle definitely has potential as some of his performances I've seen have certainly been better than satisfactory and considering his age he has a couple more years of development in him which will improve him as a player. His personality seems right to as he seems to keep his feet firmly on the ground and knows that he has to keep improving to play a more prominent role in the team.
In my opinion one for the future.
