Holden desperate for Bolton return in final game of campaign

Bolton midfielder Stuart Holden has recovered from a broken leg and hopes to play a part in the final game of the season against Birmingham on Sunday. The United States international suffered the setback in March following a challenge from Manchester City's Nigel de Jong during a friendly with Holland.

Holden, back in full training with a protective guard on his shin, said: "I have spoken to the manager (Owen Coyle) and obviously he wants me to be 100% before I am involved at the weekend.

"I feel good and have not had any setbacks. I just want to get back involved and hopefully in the mix."
