Lorient's highly rated striker Andre-Pierre Gignac is being linked with a £4 million switch to Bolton Wanderers in the summer..... The 21-year old Frenchman has scored seven goals at club level this season and both the Wanderers and Newcastle United are said to be watching developments very closely.

Bolton manager Sam Allardyce will have money to spend this summer as the Trotters gear up for a potential second season in the UEFA Cup and as speculation continues over the future of Nicolas Anelka there is no end of names being touted for a move to the Reebok Stadium.

Tal Ben-Haim and Henrik Pedersen will most definately be leaving Bolton under the Bosman rule this summer. Ben-Haim was offered a lucrative deal to stay with the Wanderers but the lure of a possible move to either Chelsea or Liverpool seems to good to turn down.

Danish utility player Pedersen on the other hand will end his six year association with the club after a much publicised fall out with Wanderers manager Sam Allardyce recently.
