3 Transfers Bolton Wanderers Are Expected To Complete This Summer Including This Liverpool Ace

Three Transfers That Bolton Are Expected To Complete This Summer

Bolton Wanderers’ excellent season in League One saw them claim automatic promotion as runners-up behind Sheffield United. Their 86-point haul is admirable and saw second tier football has been welcomed back to the town.

Arguably, their current squad of players would survive at Championship level, but the club know that they have to strengthen their squad before the season kicks off, and here we look at three players the club are working hard behind the scenes to sign for their pre-season programme:

Adam Armstrong (Newcastle United)

The Toon’s England under-20 forward is currently in World Cup action for his country, but will head back to Tyneside soon, looking for answers on his future. Despite his family wanting him to stay at the club he supported as a boy, it seems like he will move on and another crack at the Championship looks about right for him now.

Armstrong spent last season on loan at Barnsley where, despite starting well, he failed to find his best form and although he undoubtedly has more to give, that season seems to have ended to his Premier League ambitions for now. Bolton may look for a season-long loan with a view to a permanent transfer in a year’s time.

Alex Woodyard (Lincoln City)

Lincoln City’s impressive season saw them reclaim a place in the football league, winning the National League and many plaudits along with it. Woodyard was a major part of their title win and at 24, he still has plenty more to give.  League clubs are queuing up to make bids for the man from Gravesend and Bolton can complete this signing if they wish to.

Cameron Brannagan (Liverpool)

Having spent last season on loan at Fleetwood Town in League One, Bolton had a chance to get a good look at the Manchester-born midfielder and liked what they saw.

It appears though that Liverpool are now willing to let the 21-year-old leave on a permanent transfer. Only a year ago, Liverpool turned down a bid for Brannagan’s services from Wigan Athletic, so he has been a man in demand. His 12 games for Fleetwood appear to have been enough for Bolton to put a bid together for a player, who they feel, has a very big future in the game.
