German club admit striker can go if price is right

Reported Bolton and Leicester target Zlatko Dedic will be allowed to leave VfL Bochum in January - if the price is right. Bochum were relegated to the second tier of the Bundesliga last term and the Slovenia international striker has been linked by Bild to both the Trotters and Foxes. The club's general manager Thomas Ernst admits he would be interested on working on a deal to enable the 26-year-old to leave, but insists the price would have to be right for Bochum to sell. He told Bild: "If Zlatko Dedic is wanting to leave our club (this January), we have to look forward to find a good solution. "We will be holding out to receive a certain transfer fee for his services." Dedic is under contract with the German outfit until June 2012 after signing ahead of the 2009/2010 season from Serie B side Frosinone Calcio. He netted five goals in 27 appearances last season but has not been able to command a regular starting role in the side this term, playing 13 second tier games and scoring two goals.
