Paul Scharner admits the FA Cup was an influence in him signing for Wigan Athletic in January.
Fans' favourite Scharner spent four-and-a-half years with Wigan before leaving for West Brom in 2010 and then Hamburg, but returned to the DW Stadium in January on loan until the end of the season.
He said: "The cup was in my mind when I signed the contract on January 31 because Wigan were already in the quarter-finals. So I did think about it because I never played at Wembley.
"The FA Cup is one of the biggest occasions in world football so everybody knows Wembley. It will be a very nice experience for me."
