Martin Petrov completes Espanyol move

Martin Petrov has sealed his transfer from Bolton Wanderers to La Liga side Espanyol.

Earlier today Bolton manager Dougie Freedman revealed that the 33-year-old had held a series of discussions with the Barcelona-based club over a switch.

Those talks proved to be a success and the Bulgarian has signed a contract until the end of the season.

The move has seen Petrov reunited with coach Javier Aguirre, who was in charge when Petrov had a two-year stint with Atletico Madrid up until 2007.

He will be presented to the media at the club's training ground later this evening.
