Bolton boss Evatt wants to keep Luton defender Kioso with Trotters

Bolton Wanderers boss Ian Evatt is keeping his fingers crossed that Luton defender Peter Kioso will remain at the club.

The 21-year-old headed to the Trotters during the transfer window last month, agreeing a loan deal to the end of the season.

Luton chief Nathan Jones admitted he would '100 per cent' recall the former Hartlepool and Dunstable Town full back after injuries to Rhys Norrington-Davies, Dan Potts and James Bree have potentially left him without a recognised left back ahead of tomorrow's trip to Rotherham United.

Speaking to the Manchester Evening News, Evatt said of Kioso who has played five games, scoring once since arriving: "No-one’s contacted me. I’ll make sure my phone’s turned off so he can’t contact me!

"Peter’s a very good player and we want to keep him here so fingers crossed that’s the case."
