Bolton Sign Two - NIXON

Posted less than a hour ago - the gossip seems to suggest they are - Hayden White and Conor Wilkinson. Championship.

Bolton have signed a couple of young uns tonight.

Bolton signings are highly-rated right back and big striker. Both young. Late teens.

Q - for development squad or 1st team?

First team squad, but at young end of it.

Q - Like Eaves and Vela are?

Good description.

Q - players coming in from abroad or based in the UK?

Domestic. Ish. Both play in England.

Q - Any idea on the transfer fees for both?

Both out of contract. Training compo. One was wanted by a couple of big clubs but thinks Bolton a better move for him.

Q - These been hounded for a while by Dougie?

Knows both

Q - is there a fee involved

Training compo.

No way, I can't believe we managed to get Conor Wilkinson, that is an exciting signing!

DOUGIE Freedman put his summer rebuilding plans into forward gear tonight with the signing of two talented teenagers.

Wanderers have agreed terms with Sheffield Wednesday full-back Hayden White and Millwall striker Conor Wilkinson and will be required to pay compensation for their services.

White, a winger-turned-defender, has attracted some rave reviews in the Hillsborough Under-21 side this season.

The London-born 17-year-old has reportedly been scouted by Spurs, Wigan and West Brom but also hit the headlines recently after Manchester United were said to be monitoring his progress.

The same can be said for Republic of Ireland youth international Wilkinson, aged 18, who can also count Portugese giants Benfica on the list of big names who have been casting admiring glances his way, if reports are to be believed.

Neither player has made their first team bow – but Freedman has high hopes that they can both continue their progress at Wanderers.

“I've been aware of them both for a while,” Freedman told The Bolton News. “They both fit in very well with what I am trying to do at this football club and I think they can both have a very bright future with the right development.”

A step in the right direction...building for the future

Lets hope they turn out ok.

Heard it a million times before. Great young player blah blah.

Forgot to mention Jaroslaw Fojut of Tromso and Michalik who now plays in Kazakstan.
Yes, our youth players are shit, always have been, always will be.

How can you be pissed off? Small compensation and small wages, we need to try and find decent young players we just released 7 development players.

Good deals, well done Dougie.

Screamer 57 seconds in. This must mean he will be the next Messi.

You bellend. How can you say good deals when they haven't even played a game for any first team yet for Millwall and Sheff Wed? If they were any good they would have at least come on as subs. We could bring in Ian Beale's twin sons and you would be raving about them as good signings.
You have said some bloody stupid things in your time but this takes the biscuit.

The Wednesday fans seem to rate him but are also embarrassed that they've lost him to a team like Bolton.

' If they were any good they would have at least come on as subs' that shows how much of a moron you are, if a player hasn't been on as a sub by the time he's 18 that means he's shit?

Picking up two youngsters who are reasonably highly rated (at least by the media), and it costs us next to nothing to find out if they're good or shit.

Milwall fans aren't happy about it. Good deal.

Go and support Chelsea.

I like how the wednesday forums got little pics of their managers.

we need that like. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
