Manchester City winger, Shaun Wright-Phillips, could be on his way to the Reebok stadium after Bolton manager, Owen Coyle, was hit with the news that Chung-Yong Lee faces a minimum of nine months on the sidelines.
Lee suffered a double fracture against Newport County on the weekend, after a crunching tackle by Tom Miller saw the winger sent straight to a South Wales hospital.
Wright-Phillips has seen this amount of first-team football limited over the past two seasons, but the short-distance move to the Trotters could be the right choice for the 29 year-old.
Vladmir Weiss is another Manchester City wideman that Coyle sees as a replacement for his injured South Korean.
Wright-Phillips’ wages are proving a stumbling block for the England international’s move, but should he take a cut, a move could follow swiftly.
