Hutchison baffled by Forest signing Origi

Nottingham Forest made an unusual move late in the summer transfer window.

That is according to pundit Don Hutchison, who is critical of their signing of Divock Origi.

The Belgian and former Liverpool forward came to Forest on deadline day from AC Milan on loan.

Origi has only been used as a substitute so far by manager Steve Cooper.

Hutchison told ESPN FC: “I was loathe to use the word worst, but the pointless transfer I could have gone for was Divock Origi.

"I am not being unkind, but he didn't play at Milan. When I found out that Forest were going to buy him I thought, 'Well, he's not going to play there', and he hasn't.

“So, that was a bit of worst come pointless (transfer)"
