Jussi Reward For Trotters Loyalty

 

Bolton Wanderers have confirmed that goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen will have a testimonial match in August.

 

The Finnish international has made his way into the top 15 all-time appearance list for Bolton and currently has 425 to his name. However, he assured fans that his concentration remains fixed on the rest of this season before looking forward to his big day against Hibernian, managed by fellow countryman and former Trotter Mixu Paatelainen.


"There are three more important fixtures remaining this season which the team and I are fully focused on achieving as many points from as possible," Jaaskelainen told the club's official website, "However, my testimonial is a day for the supporters and I am looking forward to the occasion immensely. I am extremely proud of what I have achieved at Bolton Wanderers and it has been tremendous to represent this club for as long as I have done.”

 

Boss Gary Megson is concentrating on strengthening the defence in front of Jaaskelainen and is being linked with Jonas Olsson who may leave West Brom who looked destined for relegation. The 26-year old Swede has been the one success story for the Baggies this season.
