Bolton Wanderers
‘Get him signed & playing on Saturday’ – Bolton fans react to this surprise transfer link

In a bizarre turn of events, bottom of the Championship Bolton Wanderers have been linked with the former Real Madrid, Arsenal, and Roma striker Julio Baptista, according to reports from the Sun.
The 35-year-old has been without a club since being released from MLS side Orlando City in November of last year and now it looks like the struggling Wanderers are hoping he can save their season.
The striker recently spoke to Sky Sports in an interview when he was in London for the Star Sixes tournament and said that he isn’t ready to call it quits on his career yet.
The last time Baptista was in England playing professionally was for Arsenal back in 2006, where he scored just three league goals in 24 appearances for the Gunners.
So, what do Bolton’s fans make of this crazy transfer link?
FLW writer Adam Goacher has taken to Twitter to gauge the Wanderers’ fans reaction to potentially signing Julio Baptista…
