Paul Heckingbottom has reportedly registered his interest in applying for the managerial vacancy at Bolton Wanderers according to The Bolton News' Marc Iles. 

The Trotters have recently announced that they have parted company with Keith Hill after their relegation into the fourth tier of English football was confirmed.

Bolton had struggled throughout this year's campaign, and finished bottom of the League One table after the majority of clubs in the third tier agreed to curtail the season early due to off-the-field events.

Heckingbottom has been out of work since November 2019, when his brief managerial spell with Scottish side Hibernian came to an end after a poor run of results.

Bolton will be hoping they can appoint a new manager at the earliest of opportunities, so that they are in a position to get off to a strong start in the 2020/21 campaign.

Plenty of Bolton Wanderers supporters took to social media to issue their thoughts on the club's rumoured interest in appointing Heckingbottom.
