Bolton Wanderers have joined the hunt for unwanted Barcelona schemer Javier Saviola.
The Argentina international is being shipped out of Camp Nou over the summer after spending last season on loan at Sevilla.
Panathinaikos had been hoping to arrange a deal for the diminutive attacker and held talks with the player's agent Alfredo Cabrera Brizuela.
Arsenal were also confirmed as admirers of Saviola and reports have suggested The Gunners are close to agreeing a move.
But Cabrera has now revealed Bolton are keen on bringing Saviola to The Premiership after registering their interest.
Trotters boss Sam Allardyce has never lacked ambition in the transfer market and a bid for Saviola would rank among his most audacious yet.
Cabrera acknowledged the three teams battling for the 24-year-old's signature and concedes the player would prefer a switch to The Premiership, if he leaves Spain.
"There is a proposal from Panathinaikos, as there are from other teams," Cabrera told Greek paper Sport Day.
"One of them is Arsenal, while there is also interest from Bolton.
"Our priority is for Javier to remain in Spain or go to England because he is interested in the quality of the football.
"Greece is not first choice as the league is not the same quality as in other countries."
