Stoke City goalkeeper Jack Butland is reportedly a loan target of Bolton Wanderers.

The England international arrived at Stoke last year, but he has failed to establish himself ahead of Asmir Begovic between the posts.

That has alerted Bolton manager Dougie Freedman, who is hoping to secure the 21-year-old's services for the remainder of the season, according to The People.

Butland has already had three loan spells away from Stoke, having turned out on a temporary basis for Birmingham City, Barnsley and Leeds United.
