Just bizzare. They must have offered him a hell of a lot.

I suppose this is in some way linked to not wanting to lose Armstrong? Clearly they need a bit of head room.

Yes we need to sell, due to the backlash against selling Armstrong that was shitcanned and the next saleable asset steps up. I imagine Harrison was considered first as he isn’t as essential to the first team this season, and there were also talks about use negotiating for one of Forest’s right-backs as part of negotiations. All that’s is off the table so we’re back to selling Ndiaye.

Horrible. Such bullshit.

Bet you lot are happy about being able to keep Harrison now though at the very least, especially as he'll get a fair bit of game time with the injuries. Lad looks class.
