Bolton Wanderers expecting Chung-yong Lee bids

Bolton Wanderers are anticipating firm offers for South Korean star Chung-yong Lee before the transfer window closes, according to a report.

The Trotters are expecting at least one bid for the winger, with Liverpool and Stoke City among the interested parties, Sky Sports News claims.

Bolton manager Dougie Freedman is said to be hopeful of keeping the 24-year-old at the Reebok Stadium, but could face an uphill battle for his services.

Chung-yong has been one of the Championship outfit's most consistent performers since returning to action from a broken leg, an injury that restricted him to just two appearances during the last campaign.

The wide man joined Bolton from K-League side FC Seoul in 2009.
