LONDON, Aug 25 - French striker Nicolas Anelka
has signed a four-year deal with Bolton Wanderers after the
English Premiership club agreed to pay 8 million pounds ($15.11
million) to Turkey's Fenerbahce.
The 27-year-old, who has had spells in the English top
flight with Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City, completed a
medical on Thursday.
"Nicolas is a player with an amazing track record in the
Premiership," Bolton manager Sam Allardyce was quoted as saying
by the BBC.
"Patience is a virtue and I am pleased to say that all the
waiting and hard work we've done behind the scenes has paid
off.
"He was born to score goals. His talent and experience will
be a valuable asset for us.
"It's an unprecedented amount of money for Bolton Wanderers
to spend and fully underlines the club's ambition."
After the first two matches of the Premier League season
Bolton lie in fourth place.
