AFC Wimbledon chairman details why Bristol City's transfer move for Jack Currie fell through

AFC Wimbledon chairman Mick Buckley claims Bristol City failed to meet their asking price for left-back Jack Currie while also refusing to include a clause that would send him back on loan for the rest of the season.

The Robins made four offers for the 21-year-old over the period of four days before deciding against pursuing a move for the talent with the League Two side refusing to budge on their valuation. Bristol Live understands the top offer reached £600,000 before City walked away.

City upped the ante in their pursuit of Currie on transfer deadline day with Jay Dasilva prepped to make way to join Coventry City which would have taken him to the end of his Robins contract. The deal fell through although the club are likely to return for his signature in the summer.
