ByGiulia Bould, BBC Radio Merseyside reporter and Tom Mallows, BBC Sport senior journalistPublished5 minutes agoEverton have called off a proposed deal to sell midfielder Harrison Armstrong to Nottingham Forest following a backlash from the club's supporters.
Forest made a bid of £40m plus a potential sell-on clause for the England Under-19 international, who is regarded as one of the brightest prospects to emerge from Finch Farm in recent years.

The Toffees board have now unanimously decided that the 19-year-old will remain at Hill Dickinson Stadium.
