Derby County have taken measures in the wake of the Leeds United 'Spygate' controversy.

Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa has admitted "spying" on the Rams and their other Championship rivals as part of the preparation for matches this season.

The practice came to light when a man who was "acting suspiciously" was apprehended by police outside Derby's Moor Farm training ground.

It emerged that the individual had been sent by Bielsa to watch the Rams train ahead of Leeds' match against them at Elland Road earlier this month.

Derby manager Frank Lampard was unhappy about the incident, which is currently being investigated by the FA and the EFL.

While Bielsa remains adamant he has done nothing wrong, Leeds made a formal apology to the Rams.

In a bid to keep out prying eyes in future, Derby have now put up some green netting around the perimeter of their Oakwood training complex.

This should make it more difficult to see in to the training pitches from the main road outside.

"It's a small thing," Lampard explained. "We aren't capable of building a Donald Trump-style wall around our (training ground)! That's not the way it works.

"We can't do that. We just work here in private, and that's the way it is."
