Wigan boss Martinez happy with Edman availability

Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez is delighted to have Erik Edman available.

Martinez has been impressed with the way the Swede has recovered from an 18-month injury nightmare.

"We've been very pleased with Erik's return," said the manager.

"It was a big step for him to be able to play competitive football again against Fulham and an exciting moment for us to see him back in action.

"He's getting stronger and fitter now and he's excited about the prospect of playing against one of his former clubs.

"So we're delighted to have a player back who gives us great quality and adds a competitive edge to the squad."
