Transfer rumours !

He's only 18 but is fairly well established and could be a decent loan for us. Somebody will snap him up I guarantee it.

I'm not sure if his name will sit well with the Wanderers faithful. The Reebok was awash with Islamophobia and I can't see the Macron being any different. Do Chelsea have any talented youngsters called John Smith who they are looking to offload on loan?

So you don't think that we'll be hearing

"We love you Islam, we do...
  We love you Islam, we do
  We love you Islam we do 
  Oh Islam we love you"


...ringing round the Macron any time soon?

Call me old fashioned but there is no way on Allah's earth that I would wear a Wanderers shirt with ISLAM emblazoned on the back.

Hull City are set to move for Bolton Wanderers winger Lee Chung Yong.

Steve Bruce has targeted wide man Lee to strengthen his midfield in preparation for the Tigers second Premier League season, and of course a Europa League campaign.

Bolton are set to demand around £6 million or so for Lee, who signed from Korean side Seoul in the summer of 2009.

And Dougie Freedman is set to cash in on the winger, who is currently away with the South Korea World Cup squad in Brazil, where he will probably captain the side.

With Bolton interested in Lukas Jutkiewicz, selling one of their big names will be vital should the pull off the deal for striker, who spent the second half of the season from Middlesbrough, scoring seven goals in 20 games.

Aside from Hull, Sunderland have also been sniffing around for the Korean ace.

Lee has played 153 games for Bolton, scoring 14 League goals in a five year spell.

£6 million?

...dreaming.


Straight swap for one of their strikers?

That said we'd never get Long or Jelavic and I'm not convinced by Yannick Sagbo although we'll see how he does in the WC.

Love it. If they've sent a scout to Bolton in the last 3 years they'll bid £60k and have their hand snatched off.

Shit player, I would applaud Douglas if he got rid.

If he has a blinder at the World Cup then his price will triple. £6 mill may be a stretch but I reckon we'd could get £4m

Haha £6million, right now he is probably worth £2million, though I hope he has a good world cup because it may fool other clubs into thinking he is half decent.

He won't.

There will be lots of mindless running, scuffed shots from 20 yards that almost don't reach the keeper, and crosses that always hit the first defender.

I'll be hoping he does an amazing job. Selling CYL could solve our striker problem.

Fingers crossed he doesn't sustain a serious injury.......

On the contrary, his form for his country has been much better than for us. He's given more freedom for Korea.

Bolton Wanderers are willing to wait on striker Lukas Jutkiewicz.

The striker, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Bolton, scoring seven goals in 20 games, has admitted to his team-mates that he wants to remain at the club.

Jutkiewicz, aged 25 has a year left on his contract at Middlesbrough, with Boro boss Aitor Karanka putting a £1 million price tag on the former Coventry City striker.

And Bolton’s crippling debts could scupper any deal, with Wolverhampton Wanderers, as well as Blackburn Rovers entering the race for the Southampton born Jutkiewicz.

Kenny Jackett’s side have the funds to do a deal, having won promotion back to the Championship after winning League One, and may propose a swap deal for Kevin Doyle, who spent the second half of last season at Queens Park Rangers.

But Dougie Freedman will still be confident that he can get his main target, with Jutkiewicz yet to make up his mind on his future.

It is understood that Jutkiewicz would prefer the move to Bolton, however it could all come down to financies, and a big name would have to be sold to fund any proposed deal, with Lee Chung Yong linked with Premier League Hull City.

Moritz insists that no deal has been done with Leeds United

Andre Moritz has not yet made a decision on his Wanderers future and could still join up with Dougie Freedman’s side at the end of this month for pre-season training.

The Brazilian playmaker has been strongly linked with a move to Leeds United but the player insisted on his official Twitter account tonight that it was not the case.

“For all the people who are asking me, all I can say is that I haven't signed anything yet. Do have a few offers but nothing signed. Thanks,” he wrote.

Sources close to the player also claim he has not turned down the offer tabled by the Whites back in May.

Moritz, who scored seven goals last term, is currently back home with his family mulling over the offer to stay on with Bolton for another year on similar terms to those offered last season.

But while the former Crystal Palace man is understood to be keen on staying in the North West, he would ideally like to find a longer deal and has put the feelers out for other English clubs.

Little is known about the extent of Leeds’ interest – although the West Yorkshire side are likely to have bigger fish to fry as they look to juggle the search for a new manager with their continuing financial issues.

They may soon be in the market for a front man, however, with Fulham, Cardiff and Norwich City said to be keen on last season’s Championship top scorer Ross McCormack.

Freedman has given his blessing to Moritz to take his time on the matter but with a fortnight remaining until his squad assemble again at Euxton for pre-season duties, he will press for a decision soon so he can sign a replacement.

Moritz has spent the last two years in England, having previously played in Turkey and Brazil.

On signing for Wanderers last summer he turned down offers from clubs in China and the USA.

Apparently, rumour has it that QPR are after Mark Davies for £3 Million.

Rumour has it that Blackburn are after Alex Baptiste on a season-long loan!

Their chief scout must be Stevie Wonder.

Ha ha, what a load of bollocks.

It was in the Sunday People so it must be true.
