What happens next?
Bolton Wanderers are in talks with Gent over a transfer of Max Dean. The club wants to sign the striker, but Gent wants a healthy profit on the sale of Dean.
Gent's head coach Rik de Mil said earlier this week that Dean wants to return to England and that an offer is being considered. Bolton Wanderers have already signed Ryan Hardie on loan and Lewis Brunt from Wrexham and are working on at least one more deal that could be concluded by the end of the week.
Max Dean trained with Gent on Wednesday morning, 24 hours after he was seen in England for talks. The striker scored 20 goals in 43 games for MK Dons before he moved to Gent in the summer of 2024 for £1.4 million. The deal included a sell-on clause on the profits made by Gent. Gent wants a healthy profit on the sale of Dean, but Bolton Wanderers are not willing to engage in a bidding war and have other strikers as an alternative.
