Swansea City manager Roberto Martinez is set to meet chairman Huw Jenkins on Thursday to discuss his future with the Championship club.

Martinez, 35, has been made the number one choice of Wigan Athletic to fill their managerial vacancy following the departure of Steve Bruce to Sunderland.

The Spanish coach has taken the Swans from League One to the top half of the Championship table inside two seasons and is viewed as one of the brightest managerial talents in the Football League.

Martinez also has a history with Wigan after spending six seasons at the club as a player in the late 1990s.

However, Swansea are believed to unwilling to release the Spaniard from his contract with Jenkins recently claiming the two clubs are 'miles apart' in terms of compensation.
