Petrov Deal Complete
Posted on: Thu 01 Jul 2010
Bolton Wanderers have completed the signing of Bulgarian International Martin Petrov after he agreed terms with the club last week.
Petrov has penned a two year deal and is Manager Owen Coyle's first signing of the summer.
"He's someone I've admired for a long time because he's a top class player and this is a tremendous signing for the club," said Owen Coyle.
"As far as I'm concerned he's probably one of the best Bosman transfers available. To try and purchase him on the market last year then it would have cost you four or five million pounds easily.
"He has played in a Manchester City side - one which was going for the Champions League - over the last few years so that tells you the level that he's played at. Plus he's got a tremendous pedigree having played at major European clubs like Wolfsburg and Atletico Madrid as well.
"He can play on the left, play on the right and behind the main striker, so he has different dimensions to his play. He's an exciting player, a creator of goals and he's also a scorer of goals and he's a tremendous all round player."
Petrov, who is the first Bulgarian to represent Bolton Wanderers will link up with his new teammates today for their first day of pre season training.
