For striker Aaron Collins, WANDERERS have made a final, “take it or leave it” offer to Bristol Rovers.
According to The Bolton News, the revised offer is estimated to be worth roughly £750,000, making the Welshman the club’s most costly acquisition in the previous 11 years.
After Bolton’s first, failed attempt at promotion, Collins pulled out of Rovers’ lineup to play Oxford United this past weekend, and he is eager to help the Whites push for promotion.
However, Ian Evatt stated that if his last offer for the current League One player of the year was rejected this time, he would be prepared to go on to “Plan B or Plan C” after his team lost to Blackpool in the Bristol Street Motors Trophy on penalties.
Sometimes it is simple to say.
“It’s our last bid,” you may say that sometimes with ease, but it really is,” he stated to The Bolton News.”This is our final offer. They choose to accept it or not.
“Excellent if they do, and we’ll move on if not.”
Wanderers may need to extend their hunt for a center-half for the following two days due to the injuries sustained by Eoin Toal (Achillies) and Ricardo Santos (calf).
To determine whether they are healthy enough to play Barnsley on Saturday, both players will undergo testing on Wednesday. Against Blackpool, Santos was taken off the field at halftime, with Toal playing the full ninety minutes.
But with only Jack Iredale and Josh Dacres-Cogley left for Evatt, things seemed bleak following the final whistle.
Wanderers would have to go to the transfer market for cover if Santos or Toal were to be sidelined for the upcoming weekend.
The manager stated, “We’ll have to sign someone because we’re out of people.””I’ll be playing center defense, and a lot deeper than I used to, with Pete Athererton. Although it is irksome and aggravating, it is a necessary aspect of the game.
“I am not confident; I am hopeful. Out there, they were still quite functional.
“We’ll have to wait and see what transpires over night, and maybe the scanner will provide some positive results. We should receive some good news because the one we usually visit has produced some bad ones.
