The UK tabloid, THE PEOPLE, says Bolton boss Sam Allardyce will make a record-breaking ?7million move for Ghana's World Cup powerhouse, plus a four-year contract offer worth ?10 million.

The highly-rated youngster, who still has four years remaining on his current contract with Udinese, expressed about a week ago that he wanted to quit Udinese and move to the Premiership next season

The 21-year-old had trials with Manchester United as a teenager but a combination of work permit problems and a struggle in adapting to English life at such a young age meant a permanent deal was never concluded and Muntari eventually joined the Serie A club instead.

Muntari's club Udinese are beleived to want up to ?10 million and Bolton are ready to test the water with a sizeable bid.

Meanwhile, according The Observer, Sheffield United want Ghana star Derek Boateng and will bid ?1.5m for the ALK Stockholm player.
