Bristol Rovers have confirmed they have agreed a fee with an unnamed club - who as previously reported are Town - for striker Ellis Harrison.

A statement on the Pirates website reads: "Bristol Rovers have agreed an undisclosed fee with an unnamed club for the sale of striker Ellis Harrison.

"Ellis will therefore be given permission to discuss personal terms and will not travel with the squad to Holland for this week's training camp. The club will be making no further comment at this time.”

As revealed earlier, the move is thought likely to be completed today with the former Wales U21 international at the club to undergo a medical and complete the formalities on his switch.
