Wigan step closer to completing Zaki deal

Wigan Athletic are wrapping up the signing of Zamalek striker Amr Zaki.

Zaki's club Zamalek appear to have found a replacement for him - Nottingham Forest's Ghanaian striker Junior Agogo.

Wigan had agreed a year-long loan deal for Zaki last week but Zamalek bosses would not sanction his transfer until a suitable replacement was found.

Talks with Agogo are at an advanced stage and once they are completed Wigan hope to finalise the deal that will bring Zaki to the JJB Stadium.
