Wigan boss Martinez hopes to re-sign Arsenal winger Ryo Miyaichi

Wigan Athletic manager Roberto Martinez is keen on a new deal for on-loan Arsenal winger Ryo Miyaichi.

Martinez is a huge fan of the 20-year-old and would be keen to extend their working relationship if Gunners boss Arsene Wenger will allow it.

"We will have to speak with Arsenal and we need to assess and make sure they are happy with the progression of the player," said the Latics boss.

"Ryo is a footballer that we really admire and has an incredible future in front of him so if we could work with him for a longer period we would be very happy to do that."
