FC Seoul have confirmed Lee Chung-yong has agreed a deal to join Premier League side Bolton Wanderers. The winger has been in England this week holding talks with the Trotters and also undergoing a medical ahead of a proposed move. The negotiations appear to have been successful, with FC Seoul expecting the deal to be completed once Lee has secured a work permit. A statement from FC Seoul said: "The contract will be signed officially after a work permit is issued." Lee is understood to have agreed a three-year contract at the Reebok Stadium, with Bolton paying in the region of £2million for the 21-year-old. Bolton boss Gary Megson has been looking to add to his squad over the summer and is also close to signing Sam Ricketts from Hull City.
