Trotters swoop for Arsenal’s Japanese starlet

We had reported a while back that French outfit Valenciennes were interested in signing Arsenal’s young Japanese starlet Ryo Miyaichi on loan. However Bolton have pipped the Ligue 1 club to his signing as the Gunners today confirmed that the forward would spend the rest of the 11/12 season on loan at the Reebok Stadium.

It is believed that Jack Wilshere’s positive experience and development at the Reebok during the 2009-10 season went a long way in convincing Arsenal to send Ryo out to the North-West instead of sending him down south to France.

Bolton manager Owen Coyle was extremely happy with the signing and said ” He (Ryo)’s a young player with tremendous promise and potential and hopefully at Bolton we can give him a platform on which he can display his qualities”
