The Mirror says Bolton will join Tottenham, Everton and Stoke in the race for the Scotland international in January.
Megson said: “It’s going to be a really important window for us because we need to keep the momentum going.
“Since I arrived at the club there has been a huge of amount of players leaving and we’re still trying to replace them.
