Former Bolton midfielder Chris Eagles has joined Charlton Athletic on a deal for the rest of the season.
The 29 year old who featured in 93 games scoring 17 goals for Bolton joining them in 2011 and then leaving the club as a free agent in the summer of 2014.
Eagles said: “We touched base [with Charlton] last season, but Bolton wouldn’t let me come.
“I came down Monday, trained, had a fitness test and everything was alright. Then on Wednesday night I agreed to it. I just wanted to get it done.
“I’ve had a great feeling about being here, it’s a massive club.
“I’m over the moon to be here and as soon as I knew they wanted to sign me it didn’t matter what they offered me I just wanted to be here.”
Would anyone have liked to see him back at the Macron under Neil Lennon?
