Bolton swooping for Villa midfielder Herd

Bolton Wanderers are set to sign Aston Villa midfielder Chris Herd.

The 25-year-old Australia international has not kicked a ball for the claret and blues this season and manager Paul Lambert is happy for him to join the Trotters on a temporary basis.

Utility player Herd was an unused substitute in Villa's Capital One Cup defeat to Leyton Orient last month, but has otherwise not been named in matchday squad so far in this campaign.
