Bolton have handed Brazil and Real Betis midfielder Denilson the opportunity to trial at the Reebok Stadium.

FOOTBALL Denilson Brazil Betis Bolton - 0

Manager Gary Megson is keen to have a look at the 31-year-old who is now a free agent after being released by Palmeiras.

Denilson became the world's most expensive player when he moved to Betis from Sao Paulo in 1998 for £21.5 million.

He spent seven seasons in Spain then travelled the globe with spells at clubs as diverse as Al Nasr and FC Dallas. He has collected 68 caps for his country and was part of the Brazil squad which won the 2002 World Cup.

  5. This guy is exectionally talented! i remember him coming on in the 2002 world cup game against Turkey...made a show of the turkish defence! Problem is the guy doesnt know how to pass the ball, and i think its a bit late to teach him that now! But who knows, be interesting to see him in the PL, certainy add some spice to an otherwise bland bolton side (although i do have respect for their spirit and grit).

  9. If he signs for bolton, will you get the brazilian women in their bikini's in the stands?.
    Thats worth it alone .
    Joking aside, he is very talented,who knows? he's never played in the premiership,maybe he will put some effort in.
    Though probably he will get his first premiership tackle and think,f*ck me whats goin on here then?
