DAVID NGOG should complete his protracted £4m move to Bolton Wanderers from Liverpool FC today.
The 22-year-old Frenchman has been a long-time target of Trotters boss Owen Coyle, who is desperate to add a striker to his ranks before tomorrow’s transfer deadline.
A fee for the former Paris St Germain forward has been agreed in principle between the two clubs, and Bolton are prepared to match Ngog’s Anfield salary, having already missed out on number one target Daniel Sturridge this summer.
Ngog is now expected to travel to the Reebok Stadium to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical, and a deal should be announced before the closure of the transfer window tomorrow evening.
Ngog has made 94 appearances since arriving at Anfield in 2008, scoring 19 goals, but has found himself surplus to requirements at Anfield this season, following Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish’s close-season recruitment drive.
He was left out of the squad for last week’s Carling Cup tie at Exeter City, and was again absent as the Reds swept aside his prospective new employers on Saturday evening to briefly top the Premier League table.
His imminent departure will, however, leave Dalglish’s squad short of attacking depth. He has Andy Carroll, Luis Suarez and Dirk Kuyt as his forward options, but would ideally like to add another before tomorrow’s deadline.
