Bolton battling Fulham to sign £11m Johan Elmander
Published 00:00 25/06/08 By By Mirror.co.uk
Bolton hope to clinch the record £11million capture of Sweden's Euro 2008 striker Johan Elmander before the end of the week - despite a late move from Fulham.
Boss Gary Megson is confident he will pull off the coup after a price was agreed with French side Toulouse - and he met the powerful forward, who would be Wanderers' most costly player.
Fulham were alerted to news that the deal was close yesterday and tried to step in.
But the signs are that Elmander is giving Bolton serious consideration as he plots his next move.
Bolton have let Norwegian striker Daniel Braaten go to Toulouse for talks as part of the deal.
