Bolton Wanderers boss Owen Coyle says Ivan Klasnic has a big future at the Reebok.
Klasnic took a drop in pay to carry on at Bolton after a successful loan spell the year before.
It was a gesture Coyle appreciated and one that may yet pay off for all concerned.
Coyle said: "When you are used to those sums you want those sums but he was prepared to take that cut.
"We had to work within our means when we were trying to sign him and he was ready to buy into that and take a hit.
"He still earns well but not to the extent that he had."
