Chris David scored one Premier League goal for Fulham and could return to England with Championship strugglers Bolton Wanderers.

Phil Parkinson of Bolton Wanderers looks on prior to the Sky Bet Championship match between Bolton Wanderers and Bristol City at Macron Stadium on February 2, 2018 in Bolton, England.

It has been a horrible couple of weeks for Bolton Wanderers fans, so a new signing would at least give the supporters something to look forward to.

According to Bolton News, the Trotters are in a dire financial situation and are being prevented from registering new players this month thanks to a transfer embargo.

But this has not stopped them from offering a trial to the former Fulham forward Chris David.

A 25-year-old Dutchman who most recently represented FC Twente in his homeland, David is a free agent and wants to kick-start his career with a return to England.

The forward has accepted the offer of a trial in Lancashire and even scored for Bolton’s U23s in their 3-2 win against Nottingham Forest on Monday night.

The Amsterdam-born attacker was at Fulham from 2013 and 2015 after moving to Craven Cottage from Ajax but failed to live up to lofty expectations due to a series of injuries.

David did score a stunning goal on his Premier League debut at the end of the 2013/14 season, however, curling a shot into the top corner against Crystal Palace.
