Bolton midfielder jailed over restaurant assault

STIG TOFTING’S agent last night claimed Bolton would stand by their midfielder after he was sentenced to four months in prison for assaulting a restaurant manager.

The Danish midfielder, a member of the World Cup squad in the summer, was hit with a four-month sentence by the Copenhagen court.

He will not begin the jail term immediately and was flying back late last night to England to re-join Sam Allardyce’s squad while considering an appeal.
