Bolton Wanderers face competition from Hull City for Manchester City winger Vladimir Weiss.

The Mirror says Bolton boss Owen Coyle is ready to snap up City's Slovakian starlet Weiss today - despite a late bid from survival rival Hull City.

Coyle plans to take the young City winger on loan for the rest of the season and City will let him out as they clear him for talks with Wanderers and Hull.

And Coyle hopes that his famed style of football - and Bolton's closeness to Manchester - will persuade Weiss to join him and get the first-team action he needs before the World Cup finals.
