Richard Keys has slammed Everton's transfer business after seeing striker Andre Ayew join Nottingham Forest instead of the relegation-threatened Merseyside club.
Forest beat off competition from Everton to sign Ayew, offering him a short-term deal until the summer after the 33-year-old was released by Qatari side Al Sadd.
Ayew is understood to have held talks with Toffees' sporting director Kevin Thelwell before deciding on a move to Trentside. He arrived in England on Wednesday night, and positive discussions with the Reds saw him move to the City Ground.
