Palace midfielder Bannan pleased with Bolton move

Crystal Palace midfielder Barry Bannan is happy over his move to Bolton Wanderers.

Bannan explained that the chance to play under Neil Lennon was a big factor in his decision to move to Lancashire.

Bannan, 25, told the Croydon Advertiser: "We have been speaking to Bolton for a while now and my heart was set on going there. I have spoken to Joe Ledley about the manager Neil Lennon and I would really like to go and work under him.

"I love the Palace fans and I will be back to hopefully play, but I've got to do what's best for me at the minute and that's going out getting games permanently."
