Bolton Wanderers are said to be one of the clubs plotting a summer move for Everton defender David Unsworth should fresh contract talks with the Toffees fail.

The 30-year old defender has spent the majority of his playing career with the Goodison Park club making over 300 appearances in two separate spells on Merseyside and is in talks with manager David Moyes about extending his current deal which runs out in the summer.

Everton have offered their former captain a further one year deal on reduced terms whilst the Wanderers and Manchester City are willing to offer a three year contract.

Unsworth who has also played with West Ham United and Aston Villa during a 12-year career is said to want to remain with the Liverpool based club but longer security could be a swaying option for the Chorley born player who can play either left back or in the centre of defence
