Although this January’s transfer window has been relatively quiet, it appears movement is on the horizon. The latest report indicates that Gary Megson and Bolton are ready to meet Fulham’s valuation of midfielder Jimmy Bullard.
Bullard, who has perhaps been Fulham’s best player so far, has only 18 months remaining on his contract. To renew his contract, Bullard is demanding to double his salary to £50,000 pounds a week. Manager Roy Hodgson wants to keep the midfielder, but not at such a high cost, so Bolton’s bid of £5 million should be enough to land the former England player.
Bullard is a quality player, and has always been consistent in the Premiership. He has a decent shot and never stops working – just the type of industrial player that fans at the Reebok have become accustomed to. If Megson lands his man, Jimmy will certainly flourish at the Reebok Stadium.
Have your say about Bullard and much more in the forum, and don’t miss the huge winter sale going on in the Premiership Talk Store!
