Bolton Wanderers have signed Sean Davis on a three-year deal.

The midfielder has joined from Portsmouth on a free transfer.

Manager Gary Megson said: "We are delighted to have signed such an experienced Premier League footballer in Sean Davis. Sean made 40 appearances last season for Portsmouth and he will strengthen our midfield.

"We wanted to bring him to the Reebok in January but our bid of £3.5million was turned down by Portsmouth, who didn't want him to leave."

Davis has a wealth of Premier League experience having accumulated nearly 200 top-flight appearances with Fulham, Tottenham Hotspur and Portsmouth. He is also a former England U21 international, earning 12 caps between 2000 and 2002.
