Former World Superbike fan favourite is rumoured to be holding talks with teams on this side of the pond after not renewing his contract with the Jordan Suzuki AMA squad for 2013.

The ex-factory Ducati man, who never quite won a WSBK title, says he hasn't finished with racing and would very much like a make a return to Europe. Given that all the top WSBK seats are filled (if we assume Sylvain Guintoli will take the second factory Aprilia seat) then he could head for BSB.

Bostrom is still very popular, mostly with the laydeez, over here and would cause something of a stir if he were able to drop into a good seat in Britain.
