Pearson gives transfer update on Bristol City's hunt for new forward as deadline day approaches

Nigel Pearson says his search for Antoine Semenyo's replacement could go down to transfer deadline day.

The Bristol City manager is working on trying to bring in a new forward after Semenyo joined Premier League Bournemouth in an initial £9million deal on Friday evening. His move leaves the club light of options in attack, particularly with Tommy Conway potentially sidelined until March with a hamstring injury.

During his press conference on Thursday, Pearson confirmed the "next couple of days" would prove "very important" in reaching an agreement with the player. He was reluctant to name the player out of respect for the other club.
