Bolton Did Not Make Bid For Reading’s Lita

Bolton Wanderers, Reading Premiership Transfer News

Reading boss Steve Coppell as dismissed reports that had claimed that Bolton Wanderers manager Gary Megson had made a £7million bid for Royals striker Leroy Lita.

Coppell told Reading World: "That just never happened, full stop. I've been saying all week that we've not had any bids.

"We had a few phone calls about players just asking 'what if?,' but there was hardly any of that. It's all news to me, and I never got the call yesterday."

The 23-year-old former England U-21 international has largely been on the fringes for the Royals in the first half of the season, and as such had been linked with a move out of the Madejski Stadium.
