Perry 'rated very highly' by Nottingham Forest as Nolan gets his man on deadline day


Perry is a player that Nolan knows well having watched him first-hand so when the opportunity arose to sign the 20-year-old midfielder late on deadline day, he jumped at the chance.
The Forest midfielder, who will spend the rest of the season at Sixfields, followed Dara Costelloe, Terry Taylor and Liam Shaw as Town’s January transfer window signings.

"He is someone who we think can come in and have an impact on our squad. We are pleased to have him in the building, and we hope this can be the start of an excellent relationship between ourselves and Forest.
"Ben will help us and be with us for the rest of the season, and he will be a better player for his time with us. We have been really pleased with our work this month and the arrival of Ben completes that."
