Exclusive: Bolton Wanderers agree deal to sign Chelsea’s Sharman-Lowe

Bolton Wanderers have agreed a deal to sign Chelsea goalkeeper Teddy Sharman-Lowe on loan, sources have told Football Insider.

The 22-year-old is set for a move to the League One outfit for the 2025-26 campaign.

England Under-21 international Sharman-Lowe is making the step up and continuing his development after spending the 2024-25 season on loan with Doncaster in League Two.

The young shot-stopper made 51 appearances across all competitions for title-winning Donny.

Sharman-Lowe set to bolster Bolton’s promotion push

He kept 15 clean sheets and conceded 54 goals as Grant McCann’s side finished four points clear of Port Vale in the fourth tier.

Bolton will be hoping Sharman-Lowe can bolster their push for promotion next season after they missed out on a play-off place in the 2024-25 campaign.

The Trotters replaced Ian Evatt with Steven Schumacher in the dugout earlier this year – but could not transform their chances of finishing in the top six.

Sharman-Lowe will arrive at Bolton after shot-stopper Nathan Baxter’s imminent free transfer move from the Wanderers to Watford was confirmed.

As well as Doncaster, he has also enjoyed loan spells with Burton Albion, Havant and Waterlooville and Bromley.
