Bolton Wanderers have completed the signing of Arsenal striker Benik Afobe on a season-long loan deal.

The 19-year-old follows Jack Wilshere and Ryo Miyachi in spending a season honing his skills at the Reebok Stadium.

Bolton manager Owen Coyle was delighted to add Afobe to his strikeforce.

He told Sky Sports News: "Benik is a very exciting addition to our squad for this season and once again we would like to thank Arsenal and Arsene Wenger for agreeing to the loan.

"He's only 19 and you can see already that he is going to be a very good player. He has an eye for goal, is an athletic striker and there is much more to come from him."

Afobe is considered one of Arsenal's brightest prospects and has already spent time on loan at Huddersfield Town and Reading.
