Bolton Seek A Fortune

Manchester United utility player Quinton Fortune could be handed a new lease of life with Bolton Wanderers next season according to the News of the World newspaper. The 28-year old South African international will be released from his contract at Old Trafford in the summer and Sunday's tabloid reports claim that the midfielder cum left back will be of interest to Wanderers boss Sam Allardyce.

Fortune joined United in 1999 and has made well over 70 appearances for the Red Devils but a succession of injuries have kept him out of contention during the Reds 2005-2006 campaign.

Bolton have been forced to use striker Henrik Pedersen as a makeshift left back this season whenever Ricardo Gardner has been unavailable so a player of Fortune's experience and utility could well fit the bill.
