Bolton make move for £5m-rated Swans star

BOLTON Wanderers are back in for Ferrie Bodde — but Swansea City will demand up to £5million before any deal is done.

Bolton boss Gary Megson is a long-time admirer of Swansea's midfield playmaker.

But Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins has laughed off talk of a £1.5m bid.

"I'm fully aware of speculation about Ferrie Bodde, but there has been no official offer," he said.

"I have had an indication from an agent that Bolton may be interested and Ferrie, like Jason Scotland, has come out in the press in the past to express his wish to play Premier League football.

"But both players are contracted to Swansea City and, from the speculation I have heard, the valuations being talked about fall way short of what we feel these two players are worth."
