Martinez keen to keep loan stars
Wigan boss Roberto Martinez is hoping to agree deals to keep on-loan duo Scott Sinclair and Marcelo Moreno at the DW Stadium next season.[LNB] Sinclair has spent the campaign on loan from Chelsea, but has started only one game in the Premier League.[LNB]However, despite the 21-year-old's inability to secure a regular starting spot, Martinez is keen to have the versatile attacker in his squad next term.[LNB]"It's safe to say everyone knows I really value Scott's potential as a player," Martinez told the Wigan Evening Post.[LNB]"I know it's been a tough season for him, but he has developed massively over the last 10 or 11 months and has gone on to a different level as a human being.[LNB]"We would all love to carry on working with Scott, but we'll have to sit down with him and see how he feels."[LNB]Martinez is also planning talks regarding a deal for Bolivian striker Moreno, who has failed to score in 12 appearances since his arrival on loan from Shakhtar Donetsk in the January transfer window.[LNB]Martinez added: "Marcelo has brought something in to the squad that we were missing, something different. He has felt really comfortable at the club.[LNB]"He is still a young man, and we will sit down with him over the next few weeks and see what he thinks.[LNB]"We have got an option that gives us control over him. The exact details need to be finalised with Shakhtar, and he remains their player.[LNB]"And we have to remember they paid around 12m euros when they signed him a couple of years ago, so the finances of the deal would have to be right for us."
