Premier League interest in Lee Chung-Yong

Newcastle and Norwich City are amongst the clubs interested in South Korean winger Lee Chung-Young, who yesterday admitted that he is unlikely to stay at the Reebok Stadium now that they have been relegated from the Premier League.

Norwich and Newcastle are both keen to make a bid for the South Korean, who could be available at a reduced rate now that Bolton will play Championship football this year.


"I haven't thought about my future yet," Lee told the Bolton News. "The season has just finished and I just want to take some holiday now.


"I'm not going to hurry to think about my future because we have a few months before next season, but I can say now that I am a Bolton Wanderers player.


"It could be much better if we stayed in the Premier League, but I couldn't do anything because I was injured. I'm fully fit now, but I will keep training for next season."
