Bolton close in on Riga

BoltonBolton are closing in on the signing of in-demand winger Mustapha Riga from Levante according to reports in Spain.

Riga looks almost certain to leave Estadio Ciudad de Valencia following Levante's relegation from La Liga and the 26-year-old plans to invoke FIFA's article 14.

This allows a player to terminate his contract with 'just cause', something which Riga has plenty of after failing to be paid for the past nine months by the troubled Spanish outfit.

Confirmation of a deal has yet to be announced but it is expected that Bolton could complete the signing of Riga in the next few days.
