    Bolton tie up Iran's Teymourian
    Wednesday, 30 August 2006


    Bolton Wanderers FC have acquired the services of
    Iranian international midfielder Andranik Teymourian
    and are close to completing a deal for another player
    who was involved at this summer's FIFA World Cup in
    the shape of Czech Republic left-back Pavel Mare?.

    Impressive World Cup
    The 23-year-old Teymourian, who has signed a two-year
    contract with the English Premiership side, joins from
    Iranian club Abu Moslem. The defensive midfielder made
    his international debut last summer and featured in
    all three of Iran's games in Germany, taking his cap
    count to eleven. "Andranik is a talented player and
    someone I believe will be able to adapt to the tough
    demands of the Premiership," said Bolton manager Sam
    Allardyce. "He impressed a lot of people during the
    World Cup and I'm delighted we've beaten off a lot of
    competition to get his signature."

    Mare? move
    Mare?, meanwhile, is closing in on a move from Russian
    outfit FC Zenit St. Petersburg that could be worth
    almost 3m. The 30-year-old, capped ten times by the
    Czech Republic although an unused squad member in
    Germany, has been deemed surplus to requirements at
    the Petrovsky stadium by Zenit coach Dick Advocaat,
    having joined the club in 2003 from AC Sparta Praha.
    The defender has no regrets, however, saying: "I will
    always remember my time in Russia. I achieved the best
    results of my career with Zenit, who will stay in my
    heart forever. I haven't signed a contract with Bolton
    yet, but I plan to sort this out before the transfer
    window closes."
