Crystal Palace are yet to pay West Brom for defender Nathan Ferguson, The Express and Star report.

And, as to be expected, a number of Palace fans have been reacting to the update on social media.

The Eagles signed Ferguson last year after his Baggies contract expired and months on after an £11m transfer fell through.

Unfortunately, the defender is yet to make a senior appearance at Selhurst Park due to a number of injuries – the latest being a serious achilles problem.

However, as Ferguson is under 24 years of age, West Brom are entitled to compensation from the Eagles, despite his off-field problems at Palace.

The Express and Star shared an update on Thursday, believing a tribunal still hasn’t taken place to determine a fee for the £34,000-a-week defender, over 12 months on after leaving The Hawthorns.

“Oh wow! Does this mean we can just pay the two thirds of his contract that remains? Assuming he actually plays for us this season……”
