Wanderers target Dutch striker

Bolton Wanderers boss Sam Allardyce is lining up a bid for PSV Eindhoven striker Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, according to press reports.
Allardyce recently claimed he was making good progress in his attempts to bring in two new forwards, with the men in question thought to be Barcelona's Javier Saviola and Fenerbahce's Nicolas Anelka.
However, he has now turned his attention to Netherlands international Vennegoor of Hesselink.
The powerful targetman is available for around £5million and his salary expectations would fit in with Bolton's wage structure, making him a more attractive financial proposition than either Anelka or Saviola.
The Trotters have also been linked with a move for Zenit St Petersburg's Russian international striker Alexander Kerzhakov.
