Bolton Wanderers are in talks to sign Wales international striker Craig Davies from managerless Barnsley.

Wanderers have had a bid accepted for the 26-year-old, who is currently in his second season at Oakwell.

This season, Davies has scored nine goals in 22 games for Barnsley, who have also allowed defender Scott Wiseman to discuss a move to Blackpool.

If he agrees a transfer to the Reebok Stadium, Davies will become boss Dougie Freedman's first permanent signing.

The former Oldham and Chesterfield man, who scored four times in Barnsley's 5-0 win at Birmingham City in September, is out of contract at the end of the season.

Speaking after Saturday's FA Cup draw against Sunderland, Bolton manager Freedman told Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Radio Manchester: "He's a player I admire and I've tried to get him for a few years at my last club [Crystal Palace].

"He's someone with the right experience and potential that I want to bring to the football club. He's got experience of the division and he's hungry."
