Jones: Boselli will improve Wigan

Wigan Athletic management are pleased with their summer market work.

So far the club have tied-up the services of Steve Gohouri on a permanent deal after his impressive loan-spell last season, and brought in Argentine striker Mauro Boselli from Estudiantes, and Jones is confident both will bring new elements to the team.

Latics No2 Graeme Jones told the club's website: "Mauro is a very good all-round player, but his biggest strength is his movement and his goals. We all felt that was what was needed to help improve on last season and we're delighted to have him here.

"The big thing with Steve is that he got himself in the right physical condition last season, which took around six weeks.

"He got himself into a position where he could push himself physically, which benefitted him a lot and he'll be coming back a few days earlier than the other World Cup representatives which says a lot about his hunger for the new season."
