New club for NRC?

Bolton Wanderers

Skysports.com understands that Nigel Reo-Coker has agreed terms with Bolton ahead of a likely switch to the Reebok Stadium.

The midfielder has attracted widespread interest since being released by Aston Villa earlier in the summer, with a number of clubs both at home and abroad keeping tabs on his situation.

A move to Italy, Germany, Spain or France appeared possible, before Bolton entered the chase to sign Reo-Coker a few days ago.

Skysports.com revealed over the weekend that he had travelled to the North West to hold talks with Bolton and it is now understood that a deal has been struck.

The Trotters are now set to finalise the signing of the 27-year-old with an announcement expected in the near future.

Good luck and best wishes, if so. Apart from when you play us, of course.

I wonder if he's surprised that bigger clubs don't seem interested. Or if he regrets leaving us.

we are a better team without him,
got two big flags of celebration flying outside my house at the moment, one for Downing and the other for NRC, just waiting to unfurl the one for Gabby.

but good luck to him, no hard feelings

Good luck to him. He did us proud last season, right up to and including his last kick of a ball, an absolutely superb tackle. He's a real confidence player and I expect Coyle to get the best out of him. If they lose Cahill, NRC will really have to earn his money up there.

I've always liked NRC,not a great but does a job. We don't have anyone like him now,wished we offered him a new deal,then again,if he was expecting too much money we done the right thing. Can't believe Bolton are offering him stupid money.

I thought he'd end up at Napoli or Valencia.

I think he's badly advised.

You were pleased to see our best player and one of our better players of last season leave, plus, would be pleased to see a player who struggled last season due to injury and would bleed claret and blue for the cause leave?

Hmmm, interesting!!!!!

What happened to all the champions league teams that his agent said were interested in him?

It would be interesting to know, assuming he does sign for Bolton, what contract they have offered compared to what we offered and he turned down.

Bolton ?

Isn't that further from where he lived when playing for us ? Or maybe he married into the Unsworth family .

Always gave his all for the cause - good luck Nigel
