Bolton Wanderers are closing in on the signing of Bristol City defender Kane Wilson, Bristol Live understands, with the wing-back due for a medical at the League One club.
Wilson arrived at Ashton Gate 12 months ago on a free transfer from Forest Green Rovers but after showing initial promise in pre-season a combination of injuries, the form of others in his position, a system change and Nigel Pearson’s own view, has fallen down the pecking order.
He made just seven appearances last season, with only two as a starter - both in the League Cup - and towards the end of the campaign was even left out of the matchday 18 with Pearson preferring academy prospect Harry Leeson as George Tanner's deputy.
