Last updated : 26 July 2005 By Matt Bottom
Juventus striker Marcelo Zalayeta is being chased by Bolton and Middlesbrough with both clubs looking to sign the Uruguayan international before the August transfer deadline.

Zalayeta asked to leave Juventus after lack of first team chances and a move to England is looking more and more inevitable after Bolton and Middlesbrough expressed an interest in the goalscoring forward.

In other news, former Bolton striker Michael Bridges has joined Bristol City on a one year contract after being released by Sunderland at the end of last season.
