Bolton boss Owen Coyle has confirmed South Korean winger Chung-Yong Lee will not feature in the final two league games.

Lee has spent the season on the sidelines after suffering an horrific leg-break in a pre-season fixture with Newport County.
The South Korea international has returned to training and there was speculation he could play some part in the end of season run in.
However, Coyle has now revealed Lee will not be involved in the games against West Brom or Stoke as the Wanderers continue their battle against the drop.
He told the Bolton News: "We can only put Chungy in if he's fit to play. We'd absolutely love to have him in, just as we would Stuart Holden, and everyone else, because if we had those players available we'd be half way up the league.
"We have to do what's right by him, not make a knee-jerk reaction that could be detrimental to his long-term welfare. We have been through all this with Fabrice Muamba and we know what's important."
