Gudjohnsen snubs Bolton loan move

Barcelona forward Eidur Gudjohnsen will not be joining Bolton on loan, according to his father and agent.

Bolton manager Gary Megson revealed this week he was working on a bid to bring the 29-year-old Iceland player back to the Reebok Stadium.

But his father Arnor Gudjohnsen told BBC Sport: "Eidur isn't going anywhere.

"Both he and his family are settled in Barcelona. Eidur is hoping to win a trophy with the club this season and will think about things in the summer."

606: DEBATE

Gudjohnsen spent two years at Bolton between 1998 and 2000 before making a �5m move to Chelsea.

After playing almost 200 games for the Blues during a six-year period, Gudjohnsen was signed by Barcelona for �8m in the summer of 2006.

In his first season injuries and the competition for places in attack prevented him from winning a place in the Barca starting line-up.

But this season, the Iceland player has been deployed in a midfield role by the Catalan giants - a tactic that has suited him.

"It is where I believe that I can use my quality in a better way by arriving late and trying to cause a surprise," the Barcelona player said this month.
