Former England striker Emile Heskey has begun training with Championship club Bolton Wanderers in a bid to earn a deal at the Macron Stadium, according to reports.
The 36-year-old, released by Australian club Newcastle Jets in the summer, previously expressed an interest in rejoining Leicester City as a player, but manager Nigel Pearson ruled this move out.
According to the Bolton News, the former Liverpool and Aston Villa forward has accepted an invitation to prove his fitness with the Whites over the course of the next couple of weeks.
Trotters manager Neil Lennon is also said to be in talks with former Chelsea and Barcelona striker Eidur Gudjohnsen.
