Bristol City suffer double transfer blow as Robins pull out of deals to bolster defence

Bristol City have pulled out of a deal to sign Jack Currie with AFC Wimbledon unwilling to sanction the left-back's deadline day departure, Bristol Live understands.

The Robins made a final £600,000 offer with a 20 per cent sell-on clause on Tuesday afternoon but the League Two side wanted to include a loan back clause, which added further complications to the transfer. It also means Jay Dasilva will remain at City for the rest of the season to provide cover for Cam Pring.

Currie was given verbal reassurances that he would be able to leave for BS3 today but the Dons changed their stance on the final day. The 21-year-old turned up to training this morning but wasn't in the right frame of mind to complete the session in the wake of City's offer.
