Skysports - Bolton Wanderers have completed the signing of Andranik Teymourian after being granted a work permit for the Iranian international.

The 23-year-old midfielder originally saw his move to The Reebok Stadium held up by the Home Office, but a tribunal decided on Tuesday to allow the midfielder to move to The Premiership.

Teymourian caught Sam Allardyce's eye during the World Cup finals, and has now joined on a two-year deal from Abu Moslem.

The Trotters boss was delighted to finally welcome the Iran star to The Reebok Stadium, and Allardyce already has high hopes for his new charge.

"Andranik is a talented player and somebody who I believe will be able to adapt to the tough demands of the Barclays Premiership.

"He impressed a lot of people during the World Cup and I am delighted that we have beaten off a lot of competition to get his signature."

Teymourian joins Idan Tal in arriving to reinforce Bolton's midfield over the summer.
