Veteran Heskey eyes extension to Bolton deal

Former England and Liverpool striker Emile Heskey is hoping to earn a new contract for next season with Championship side Bolton. He joined the Wanderers on a short-term deal last December which was then extended until the end of this season.

"I'd love to stay for another year, definitely," said the 37-year-old.

He told BBC Radio Manchester: "I've enjoyed it. The lads have taken to me really well, I feel at home and I've got a great feeling for the club and the legs feel good.

"I've played for so long it's about the enjoyment and putting on that shirt and every week I enjoy that."
