Rasiak makes loan move from Southampton to Bolton

Bolton have signed Poland striker Grzegorz Rasiak on loan from Southampton until the end of the season.

Rasiak, 29, has experience at the top level, having worn the colours of Tottenham and Derby, and Trotters boss Gary Megson was delighted to finally bolster his attacking options after the departure to Chelsea of Nicolas Anelka at the start of this month.

Megson said: "He is a big, powerful centre forward who knows where the back of the net is.

"He will bring more firepower to the squad and allow us extra attacking options."

Megson earlier complained managers are forced to pay over the odds when they recruit good players in the January transfer window.

He had already added defender Gary Cahill to his squad, following his protracted move from Aston Villa for a fee in the region of £5million.

The former England Under-21 international and Rasiak followed Gretar Steinsson and Matt Taylor to the Reebok Stadium.
