Bolton miss out on Sorin Bolton boss Sam Allardyce has revealed the club have failed in a bid to sign Argentine World Cup star Juan Pablo Sorin. Allardyce has been chasing the full back all summer as he looks to bolster his squad. Villarreal are ready to sell Sorin for the right price after a number of clubs expressed an interest in the player. Sorin held talks with Bolton and visited the club, but Allardyce was unable to persuade him to make the switch to The Reebok Stadium. "We were disappointed missing out on the signing of Juan Pablo Sorin," Allardyce told the club's official website. "He had a look around the club and it is a great shame that we failed to acquire such a fantastic player who has played in the World Cup." Allardyce also remains hopeful that Jared Borgetti will seal his move away from the club soon. The Mexican's proposed move to Al Ittihad stalled earlier this week, but Allardyce still expects the deal to happen. "I still remain hopeful that Jared Borgetti will leave us and maybe something can happen in the Middle East," added Allardyce. "There is a lot of interest in Jared and I have no doubt a deal will be done over the coming weeks with a club somewhere in the world. "A good number of clubs want to sign him and it will happen soon." Meanwhile, Kevin Davies, Joey O'Brien and Henrik Pedersen are all in danger of missing the start of the season. All three players are struggling with injuries and face a race against time to be fit for the big kick-off against Tottenham. "Kevin Davies, Joey O'Brien and Henrik Pedersen are all major doubts ahead of the opening league game of the season," bemoaned Allardyce. "As it stands now all three, along with Ricardo Gardner (knee) who is out until at least the end of October, could be out of my plans for the Spurs game, which is a major problem." Why not choose Sorin?

Tevez may be the next target 8)

1st opportunity cost is that Wayne Bridge will go! :?
