Sporting Lisbon keeper Stojkovic desperate for Wigan stay

Sporting Lisbon goalkeeper Vladimir Stojkovic is desperate to stay with Wigan Athletic.

The Serbia international is on-loan at the DW until the end of the season.

"In Serbia there were rumours that I don't want to stay at Wigan, but that is not true," Stojkovic told Sportski Zurnal. "My quotes were wrongly translated. I never told anyone that I would like to go somewhere else. I really don't know why someone is always making up stories about me.

"I told one journalist that I was sad because I couldn't show more of what I can do in a Wigan shirt, but I really want to stay in England and at Wigan.

"I haven't spoken to coach Martinez yet, but I think we will sit down in the next few days. I feel happy at Wigan so I hope we will still be able to work together next season."
