Wigan boss Martinez sends scouts worldwide to check on talent

Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez admits they're on the lookout for new signings.

Martinez has sent his scouts far and wide during the international break and told the Wigan Observer: "We've got a good squad at Wigan with a lot of potential and they are still improving.

"You are always looking to strengthen and our search is a worldwide one.

"We are not just looking at the English market, because some players here can be a little bit overpriced. So I'm looking at Spain, Holland, Scotland, Portugal, Ukraine and South America as well. We have strong links there, as we have shown with the players we've bought.

"We are going to be linked with many players but any who come to Wigan will have to give the squad another dimension, and, crucially, help the players we already have. However, until something happens I'm not going to single out names because that would be unfair."
