Derby County forward Offrande Zanzala has joined Sky Bet League 2 side Stevenage on a youth loan.

The 19-year-old has linked up Teddy Sheringham’s side for a period of one month to gain first-team experience.

He signed professional terms in March last year and has impressed for Derby’s Under 21 side this season.

The Academy graduate was named as the Barclays Under 21 Premier League Player of the Month for October, after scoring four goals in three games.

Zanzala hails from Democratic Republic of the Congo but moved to Europe as a young child. He arrived in England at the age of eight before he joined the Rams as a schoolboy when he was 12.

Since then, he has flourished in Derby’s Academy and, as well as developing his game, he has found the back of the net on a regular basis.

Stevenage are currently 19th in League Two in Sheringham’s first season in charge at The Lamex Stadium and Zanzala could make his debut in their home game against Barnet this afternoon.
