Midfield trio leave Trotters May 17 2008

Bolton have confirmed the release of midfield trio Ivan Campo, Stelios Giannakopoulos and Andranik Teymourian.

Wanderers finished just a point above the Premier League relegation zone after staging a remarkable escape and manager Gary Megson has started planning for next season.

"Ivan, Stelios and Andranik have all done well for Bolton Wanderers and I'd like to express my gratitude to them," said Megson.

"It's time for them to move on and I wish them all the best."

However, the Trotters boss is hopeful of persuading goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen and defender Ricardo Gardner to sign new deals.

The duo are out of contract at the end of June but Megson remains hopeful of extending their stay at the Reebok Stadium.

"Jussi and Ricardo have both been excellent servants and are still very much part of my future plans for this football club," he told the club's official website.

"Hopefully, we can get them secured on new deals as soon as possible."
