Scoring over 50 competitive goals for the Reds during his time at the City Ground, he ensured he would go down as a well-known Forest figure for many years to come.

All good things must come to an end though – and this was no different in Harewood’s situation with the forward leaving to link up with West Ham in November 2003 for a fee believed to be in the region of £500,000 as he had the unenviable task of competing with Jermain Defoe.

Barring one spell in China, he spent the remainder of his career competing in England, remaining in the Premier League with Aston Villa and then Blackpool before his move to Guangzhou City materialised.

Coming back to his home nation aged 32, he was unable to return to the top tier, enduring a relatively unsuccessful second stint at Nottingham Forest before spells at Barnsley, Bristol City and League Two club Hartlepool United followed.

He finished off his playing career at Nuneaton Town before enjoying a mixture of occupations after his retirement, combining football and cars to keep him busy.
