Bolton boss Coyle keen to take close look at Ward

Bolton Wanderers boss Owen Coyle will take a close look at attacking prospect Danny Ward during their preseason tour of the USA.

The Bolton News says the promising young striker spent time at Coventry City and Huddersfield Town last season, helping the latter into the League One play-off final.

Still just 19 years old, Ward has made only two senior appearances for the Whites but is expected to play a significant part during the club's summer preparations, with only a handful of senior strikers at Coyle's disposal.

Kevin Davies and Ivan Klasnic are the only recognised out-and-out centre forwards going into the new campaign, and while the Wanderers boss is in the market for more, the former Leeds United trainee is expected to be given ample opportunity to prove he can be a part of the first team picture.
