===Perugia===
Bothroyd's form for Coventry brought interest from [[A.C.

During his time at Perugia, he befriended then-Libyan leader [[Muammar Gaddafi]]'s third son, [[Al-Saadi Gaddafi]]. In October 2011, shortly after the dictator's death, he spoke to ''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'' about his experiences as Al-Saadi's friend.<ref name = BothroydGaddafi>{{cite news | url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/columnists/duncanwhite/8855320/Jay-Bothroyd-puts-good-times-with-playboy-Saadi-Gaddafi-son-of-dead-Libya-tyrant-Colonel-Gaddafi-behind-him.html | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111030130315/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/columnists/duncanwhite/8855320/Jay-Bothroyd-puts-good-times-with-playboy-Saadi-Gaddafi-son-of-dead-Libya-tyrant-Colonel-Gaddafi-behind-him.html | url-status=dead | archive-date=30 October 2011 | newspaper=The Daily Telegraph |location=London | first=Duncan| last=White | title=Jay Bothroyd puts good times with playboy Saadi Gaddafi, son of dead Libya tyrant Colonel Gaddafi, behind him | date=29 October 2011 |access-date=3 December 2013}}</ref>

Bothroyd signed for [[Charlton Athletic F.C.|Charlton Athletic]] on 31 August 2005, after being released by Perugia due to their financial problems.<ref>{{cite news |title=Bothroyd makes move to Charlton |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/charlton_athletic/4203282.stm |publisher=BBC Sport |date=31 August 2005}}</ref> While at Charlton, he scored twice, in games against Manchester City and Newcastle United.<ref>{{cite news

Bothroyd was then taken on trial at [[Crystal Palace F.C.|Crystal Palace]], but the club decided not to offer him a contract.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}} Bothroyd later denied he was on trial with Crystal Palace, despite playing in Crystal Palace's pre-season tour of the United States.<ref>{{cite news |title=Bothroyd denies Palace trial |url=http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11699_2411244,00.html |publisher=Sky Sports |date=14 April 2007}}</ref>

===Wolverhampton Wanderers===
[[File:Bothroyd, Jay.jpg|thumb|upright|Bothroyd in 2008]]

Bothroyd joined [[Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.|Wolverhampton Wanderers]] on 26 July 2006, becoming [[Mick McCarthy]]'s first full signing for the club.<ref>{{cite news|title=Wolves sign Bothroyd from Addicks |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/w/wolverhampton_wanderers/5220168.stm |publisher=BBC Sport|date=28 July 2006}}</ref>

Bothroyd started the season in fine style, scoring three goals for his new club in their first six fixtures, including a 25-yard strike in injury time away at [[Leeds United F.C.|Leeds United]] to grab all three points.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}} However, in the following match against [[Derby County F.C.|Derby County]], his fortunes took a turn for the worse as he had a penalty saved in a match that Wolves lost 1–0.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}}

Bothroyd's goal scoring petered out after this initial burst and he suffered an injury in December that kept him out of the busy Christmas period, though he returned to the squad in February 2007 and made several substitute appearances.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}} The most vital of these came when he scored the winning goal as Wolves beat their bitter [[Black Country derby|Black Country rivals]] [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] 1–0 in a crucial encounter in the race for promotion.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}}

The striker had to settle for a place on the bench for the start of the [[2007–08 Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C. season|2007–08 season]].{{citation needed|date=April 2016}} He was eventually given a start against his former club Charlton, where he scored one and created one in a 2–0 win and kept his starting place for the next three matches, scoring Wolves' only goal of the match against [[Bristol City F.C.|Bristol City]] in a 1–1 draw.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}}

After Wolves signed new strikers [[Sylvan Ebanks-Blake]] and brought in [[Kevin Kyle]] on loan during the January transfer window, Bothroyd found himself out of first team contention.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}} To gain playing time, he moved to fellow [[EFL Championship|Championship]] club [[Stoke City F.C.|Stoke City]] on an initial one-month loan on 14 March 2008,<ref>{{cite news |title=Stoke complete late Bothroyd deal |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/stoke_city/7296335.stm |publisher=BBC Sport|date=14 March 2008}}</ref> later extended to the end of the season, which ended in promotion to the Premier League.<ref>{{cite news |title=Bothroyd stays with Stoke |url=http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11688_3423174,00.html |publisher=Sky Sports |date=14 April 2008 }}</ref> However, after featuring in just four matches during his loan spell, he returned to his parent club who promptly put him up for transfer.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}}
