Bolton Wanderers have signed former Norwich City midfielder Nelson Khumbeni and ex-Reading youngster Lynford Sackey to the club's B team.
The pair, who are both 19, will start life with Wanderers as part of the B squad introduced this season as a potential stepping stone to the senior squad. They are the first external recruits to the club's new second string, which will play in the EFL Central League and also a series of hand picked friendlies over the coming campaign in a bid to make it to the Whites' first team.
The B team managed by Matt Craddock reports for pre-season training next week and the duo will link up with Wanderers' new second string then. Sackey, who has played as a full-back and in a more attacking right-sided position, progressed through the Academy system at Reading to earn a professional deal with the Championship club and made two senior appearances for the Royals.
