Trotters sign Shittu

Bolton have confirmed they have completed a deal to sign defender Danny Shittu from Coca-Cola Championship side Watford for an undisclosed fee.

The 27-year-old Nigerian, who had spells with Blackpool and QPR before he moved to the Hornets, has signed an initial three-year deal according to Bolton’s website.

Shittu becomes manager Gary Megson’s fourth signing of the summer and he will fly out to Greece to join up with the rest of the Wanderers squad ahead of the start of the new Barclays Premier League season.
