Tristan has opted for the Balearics above Bolton
|
Striker Diego Tristan says his decision to snub Bolton in favour of Real Mallorca was not a financial one.
Bolton boss Sam Allardyce was keen on Tristan, 30, following his release by Deportivo la Coruna.
Tristan told the Bolton News: "My decision was not influenced by money, today I believe I can still be a success in Spain.
"In the Premiership the money is superior and my head did go to England but my heart decided on Mallorca."
Tristan underwent a medical at Real Mallorca on Wednesday and his signing was expected to be confirmed on Thursday.
