Israeli champions Maccabi Tel Aviv have recruited Derby County striker Nick Blackman for a two-year contract.

The 29-year-old spent the 2017-18 season on loan with Maccabi, scoring 10 goals in 13 league games.

Blackman cost the Rams £ 2.5 million when he arrived from Reading in January 2016, but he scored only once in 29 games and was loaned last season with the Spanish second-tier club, Sporting Gijon.

"I'm really happy and proud to be back," he told the club's website.
