"I knew the consequences" – Player still waiting to see if failed Nottingham Forest move was for best

Read stayed at Feyenoord after Forest and Roma failed to meet the Dutch club's valuation; he says he's content with the decision.

Givairo Read was heavily pursued by Nottingham Forest and Roma during the summer transfer window, but Feyenoord rejected all bids and refused to sell. The Dutch club's director of football Devy Rigaux dismissed reports of a €30m offer, stating the figure was inaccurate and that Feyenoord preferred to keep Read for another year of development. Read has since confirmed he is happy with his decision to remain at Feyenoord, though he acknowledged the move could have gone either way.
