Costa Rica winger Christian Bolanos has agreed to join Charlton Athletic on a season-long loan.

The deal for the 22-year-old, who is currently contracted to Deportivo Saprissa, includes an option for the Addicks to buy him next summer.

Bolanos still needs to obtain a work permit before he can complete the move, but that should not be a problem as he represented his country at the World Cup finals and also impressed during last year's FIFA Club World Championship.

The Costa Rican is Charlton boss Iain Dowie's third signing of the week, following the arrivals of Djimi Traore from Liverpool and Amady Faye from Newcastle.
