Bolton Wanderers boss Owen Coyle is eyeing Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara.
The Mirror says FIFA will have to rule on whether he can move this season.
Coyle is rivalling Mick McCarthy's Wolves for the midfielder, who is back at Spurs but stuck in limbo because his loan spell at cash-strapped Portsmouth has ended.
Tottenham are asking FIFA to let them sell O'Hara in the window - and join his third club of the season. Chairman Daniel Levy is waiting on a verdict before moving him out.
The Premier League have passed on making a decision on O'Hara's unusual case, leaving FIFA to make the call about the midfielder's future.
