Jon Dadi Bodvarsson is training with Icelandic club Selfoss following his release by Wanderers.

Bodvarsson departed the Toughsheet Community Stadium at the end of last season after two-and-a-half-years with the Whites.

The 32-year-old scored 25 goals in 94 matches, becoming a popular figure among the Bolton faithful.

Selfoss have shared an image of the experienced striker taking part in a session with a message that translates to: "A good guest for training".

The club plays in the third tier of Icelandic football and are currently top of the league, having won 11 of their opening 16 matches and lost just three.

Earlier this summer, Bodvarsson told The Bolton News he was open-minded about his next chapter.

"We are open for everything as a family," he said. "We would like to stay in England, we are comfortable here and used to the environment.

"My daughter is getting older, it is crazy with kids how it changes your perspective on things. I am not the young player climbing up the ladder, it is now more important location-wise.

"We have lived abroad before so that is not out of the question as well. Basically, it is a case of seeing what happens. I haven't heard from my agent yet but he'll come to me with whatever he has in his hands and we will go from there.

"England would be nice to continue because I know the environment really well. You know that it is family first now and that as my daughter, who has just been in reception, gets that bit older that she will feel it a little more moving away.

"I am relaxed about it all, though, whatever happens will happen and something will pop up eventually. I am taking a bit of a breather at the moment and enjoying some time with family.

"I'm staying fit, obviously, which is a very boring thing to do, go out and jogging. I just want to play football, but it'll be fine in the end."
