Coyle eyes move for Swans star

Skysports.com understands Bolton are leading the chase for Swansea City midfielder Darren Pratley. Pratley is out of contract at Swansea this summer and is expected to leave on a free transfer. The Swans have put off all contract talks until the end of the season and, after losing his place in the side, Pratley is expected to quit the Liberty Stadium. The news has alerted a number of Premier League clubs to the goalscoring midfielder's availability. Sunderland and Birmingham are both believed to be keen on the 25-year-old, while West Ham made an enquiry for his services in the January transfer window. However, Bolton are thought to be at the head of the queue for Pratley's signature. Bolton boss Owen Coyle has made midfield reinforcements one of his top priorties for next season and he is hoping to steal a march on his rivals by luring Pratley to the Reebok Stadium.
