Just under two weeks ago, the two clubs had opened talks over Jermaine Beckford and a day later, the £1 million asking price emerged. Today, a report from the Leicester Mercury says that the two clubs are way apart in their valuations of the player.

Two different reports out of Italy (from Sportevai and JuveNation) claim that Nicolas Anelka could be on his way back to the Reebok Stadium. It was his stay at Bolton that revived the career of "Le Sulk."
It's something we've known about for some time but Alonso's exit is getting ever closer to confirmation. According to the Daily Mirror, the defender's free transfer to Serie A side Fiorentina is just about done.
The winger still has one year left on his contract at Big Sam Allardyce's West Ham and as such, the Trotters would have to agree a fee for the young winger.
The two players are full-back Hayden White, formerly of Sheffield Wednesday, and striker Conor Wilkinson, formerly of Millwall. They are 17 and 18-years-old, respectively.
If you have been following the Bolton news sphere over the last few days, the hot topic is the growing chatter around the topic of a Matt Mills exit. The fee being thrown around is in the neighborhood of £1 million and Bolton would take a loss.
One of the names now being thrown in the ring for a defensive signing is that of Blackpool's Alex Baptiste. The 27-year-old has been at Blackpool since 2008 and has made 187 appearances for the Tangerines in all competitions.
The reported fee is just 40% that of what Leicester paid when signing Beckford from Everton at the start of the 2011/12 season. Now, Leicester are somewhat stuck between a rock and a hard place as the striker is not in the Foxes' future plans.
Today, Bolton Wanderers were close to signing two players. Per a newspaper report, the Trotters were within reach of a striker and a midfielder. A new report claims that talks have opened for said striker: Jermaine Beckford
We knew that Freedman was looking to add a pair of names and the initial report from last week made it clear that the news was just around the corner.
The summer clear-out at Bolton Wanderers is officially underway. Five youngsters have been let go by the club ahead of next season. A number of these players have been at Bolton for years but have failed to break into the first team.
Dougie Freedman had said that the Trotters were looking at two names set to come in already with three more potentially in the cards and a certain newspaper thinks they know what one of those names is.
Via a report from the Mail, Bolton Wanderers and Dougie Freedman are very, very interested in Crystal Palace midfielder Owen Garvan. The 25-year-old has been with Crystal Palace for three seasons and will be out of contract this summer.
Bolton Wanderers 2012/13 season is not yet over but the manager has confirmed that he will be adding to the squad and doing it soon. Speaking at his pre-Blackpool match press conference, Dougie Freedman made mention of some moves.
After impressing on trial in two reserve matches, Alex McQuade has officially signed on with Shrewsbury Town, the club that Tom Eaves spent time on loan at.
