news update: after a move on the deadline day, an unnecessary transfer claim is made

According to commentator Don Hutchison, Nottingham Forest’s late purchase for Divock Origi was the most ‘pointless’ deal of the summer window.

The Reds completed a deadline-day loan transfer for the former Liverpool striker, who joined the club on loan from Italian giants AC Milan in the last hours of the window.Origi has yet to start for Forest, however he has appeared as a late substitute in all four Premier League games since joining the club.

Despite a lack of regular game time at Liverpool, where he spent eight years, the striker established a reputation for scoring vital goals. It’s something Forest hopes to emulate this season.

I’m not being cruel, but he didn’t play for Milan.” When I heard Forest were going to buy him, I thought to myself, ‘Well, he’s not going to play there,’ and he hasn’t. So that was a kind of a worst-case scenario turned pointless (transfer).
