Bolton Wanderers have signed former QPR and Wolves midfielder Karl Henry until the end of the season.

The 34-year-old, who has been a free agent since his release by QPR last summer, has made 535 career appearances, having come through the ranks at Stoke City.

Henry spent seven years with Stoke before joining his hometown club Wolves in 2006, where he made 272 appearances and helped them gain promotion to the Premier League.

Following a spell training with West Bromwich Albion, Henry has agreed to join Bolton, who sit bottom of the Championship with seven losses and two draws from their opening nine games.
