Nicky Hunt has left Bolton to join Championship side Bristol City on a free transfer.

The 26-year-old has signed a two-year contract at Ashton Gate and will help aid Steve Coppell's bid for promotion next season.

Hunt made 161 appearances for Bolton but hadn't featured since March 2008 in a 3-2 defeat to Arsenal.

Speaking about the move, Wanderers boss Owen Coyle admitted it was the right decision to let the player leave the Reebok Stadium.

"Nicky is a terrific lad but obviously his opportunities have been limited here," Coyle told the club's official website.

"We wish him well at Bristol City."
