JAY JAY Okocha will return to Wanderers for the first time since leaving the club eight-and-a-half years ago.

The Nigerian legend – “so good they named him twice” – has agreed to take part in Kevin Davies’s testimonial game next summer.

Okocha has not been seen at the Macron since leaving for Qatar, his last game coming in a 1-0 win over Birmingham City in May 2006.

But @KCDtestimonial, the Twitter account set up to promote the fixture, wrote yesterday: “Delighted to announce that the best player I have ever played with Jay Jay Okocha will be returning to Bolton for my testimonial!!”

Okocha joins a long list of stars who are confirmed for the game, which will be played between an ex-Wanderers XI and a celebrity all-star side on either July 31 or August 1.

Neil Lennon’s first team also hope to organise a game on the same day against a top European opponent.

Jason McAteer and Fernando Hierro are also considering an appearance, depending on work commitments.
