Wigan chairman Whelan will not pay crazy money for Al-Habsi

Wigan Athletic chairman Dave Whelan wants Bolton Wanderers to drop their asking price for Ali Al Habsi.

The Latics have had a second offer for Al Habsi knocked back - as Bolton hold out for £5m.

Latics chairman Dave Whelan told the Wigan Evening Post last week that they will not be held to ransom in the transfer market.

He said: "We won't pay stupid money for Ali, or anyone else for that matter."
