Joel Lynch could be invited back into the Wanderers camp this week despite heading home from Bolton at the weekend.
The free agent defender was strongly tipped to sign a contract with the Whites after linking up with Ian Evatt’s squad for training last week.
But his chances of a deal looked dead and buried after he left the the North West at the weekend, with no planned return.
We have now learned the player has now received an invite back into the camp at some stage this week, although training sessions will be limited because of a midweek game against Morecambe.
Bolton boss Evatt had chased Lynch’s signature in the summer and had been impressed with the former Wales international during his trial. But with left-sided centre-halves Ryan Delaney and Reiss Greenidge already at his disposal, 33-year-old Lynch is fighting for a congested spot in the Wanderers squad.
Lynch had trained with Southend United until recently but after failing to agree terms at Roots Hall he travelled up to see what Bolton had to offer.
Southend boss Mark Molesley believes the defender is on the radar of a few other clubs.
“With him being a free agent and a good player he’s going to be wanted by a whole host of teams,” he said. “He wasn’t ready to do anything with us yet.”
