What happened to the side track at Highbury & Islington?

The AC lines between Dalston Kingsland and Camden Road are currently OOU
and under engineers' possession, with some sections lifted. Eventually
the existing DC pair will be used by the ELLX between Dalston Junction
and Highbury & Islington, while the NLL service and freight will use the
reinstated northern pair, using 25 kV AC OHLE. Between Highbury &
Islington and Camden Road (exclusive) there will be 4 tracks,
effectively a pair for the NLL passenger service and long up and down
goods loops. Canonbury and Highbury & Islington will each have 4
platforms (2 for ELLX and 2 for NLL), while Caledonian Road will have 3
(the existing eastbound platform reinstated as an island).

What is going to be the fate of the GOBLin? considering all the work
that they plan to do?

Will that line, for example, be electrified?
