Bolton Sign Stuart Holden
Dynamo’s Holden Signs With Bolton Until End Of Season
U.S. International is off to the English Premier League.
On trial with Bolton for the last few weeks, former Houston Dynamo midfielder Stuart Holden was given a permanent deal by the English club that will last until the end of the season.
“There is an incentive for Stuart to try to get himself in the team,” Coyle said to Sky Sports. “He’s had a little thigh knock for the last three or four days which has curtailed his training a little bit, but he did ever so well in the first week and he comes looking to push his career on.”
I’m a fan of Stuart Holden. He is an industrial type of player out there that will give it his all. Those are the types of players who tend to do well in English football. Plus American players have found a lot more success playing in England than other places in the Europe. From Bolton’s perspective the six month deal is a curious one. What if Holden plays well for Bolton then helps lead the U.S into the knockout round of the World Cup? You then have a pretty valuable asset. Under this short term contract you can sure Holden would walk if he shines during the World Cup.
