Wigan boss Bruce wants more signings to follow Rodallega

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Sat, 01/10/2009 - 06:37

Wigan Athletic boss Steve Bruce says new Colombian striker Hugo Rodallega cannot be his one and only signing this month.

He is staggered by the £4.5million they are due to shell out on Rodallega but is ready to ask chairman Dave Whelan for more cash.

Bruce said: “I have the smallest squad in the Premier League. I’ve got a lot of quality. But in terms of numbers, we are too short.”

Wigan will know on Monday if their move for Rodallega from Mexican side Necaxa can go ahead as it is subject to his work permit being approved.

Also yesterday, from Mr. Bruce: "Rodallega will be it as far as I am concerned and I hope that is it going out as well."

And again: "Rodallega will be it as far as I am concerned"

So a better title would be "Wigan boss Bruce does not want more signings to follow Rodallega." Sorry guys, but a bit of a swing and a miss on this one.
