Wigan new boy Cho Won-hee is expecting to make an immediate impact on the Premier League. The 25-year-old has been on trial with the Latics for a number of weeks and will sign on a free transfer from Suwon Bluewings. The South Korea international midfielder, who can also play in defence, is set to return to the club on 8th March when his work permit is expected to be approved. But despite the majority of foreign imports needing time to settle in and find their feet, Cho is confident he can have an impact this season. "It is a dream come true. The feeling has not sunk in yet," he said. "The Korean fans want to see me succeed and I will try not to disappoint them. There will be many challenges ahead but I will train harder than ever." Cho becomes the third South Korean to play in the top-flight this season after Manchester United's Park Ji-sung and West Brom's Kim Do-heon. The midfielder even revealed that he had received some advice from United's winger on what he can expect in England. "Ji-Sung advised me of the hurdles I may face but if I work hard, I will see them through," he added.
