Kyle Dempsey is hoping to stake his claim as Bolton Wanderers' number 10 moving forwards as the January transfer window signing has lifted the lid on his rugby league past and how came through the ranks at Wigan Warriors.
The 26-year-old was the final acquisition in the dying moments of the January transfer window from Gillingham to become Bolton's seventh signing of the period as part of a squad tranformation.
Dempsey has since gone on to make seven appearances for Wanderers, which has coincided with the club's rise up the League One table which has got them in the conversations for the play-offs.
