Sam gets his man

Bolton manager Sam Allardyce has completed the signing of Hidetoshi Nakata on a season-long loan deal. The move for the Fiorentina playmaker is subject to a work permit after he successfully came through a medical. Sam Allardyce has been looking to strengthen his attacking options ahead of Bolton's U.E.F.A. Cup campaign. Nakata is delighted at the chance to move to England with Bolton. "I am very pleased to begin a new experience in the Premier League," Nakata told the club's official website. "I'm pleased the deal is sorted out," said Allardyce. "The player's medical was fine and we have now sorted out the work permit. "He is an exciting acquisition for us and will add much needed strength to our squad."


Nakata in action for Fioretina


I personally think Nakata is a great signing because over the years he has been knowing to score a huge amount of goals. The season long loan deal is great for Bolton because they don't have to pay any transfer fee. I beleive he will help Bolton in there first ever time of being in the U.E.F.A. and he will also help them in the Premiership. The Japanese coach, whoever he is will be happy with the move because, as you no Nakata is Japanese, and he will gain great Premiership experience before the World Cup in 2006.
