Soccer Betting Lines

02/08/2010 - Bolton, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bolton central defender Gary Cahill is set to miss the rest of the season due to a blot clot in his arm.

The 24-year-old, who is on the fringes of the England senior squad, missed the weekend draw with Fulham and has now been ruled out for several months.

Manager Owen Coyle confirmed: "Gary suffered a pain in his arm and it became severely swollen on the day of the game.

"There was no way he could play, so we took him straight off to the hospital. It turns out he had a blood clot in his arm, so he is going to be out for a number of months."

"It is a severe blow for the boy but our main concern is his welfare. We have to make sure Gary is fit and well.

"He will miss the next few months, it might be for the rest of the season, we will hear from the specialist later."
