Latics boss pencils in Zaki return

16 April 2009 15:00
Wigan Athletic manager Steve Bruce believes striker Amr Zaki could be in line to return to the squad after a torn hamstring.The Egyptian international incensed Bruce by remaining in his homeland to rest his injury but has since returned to Wigan - and been fined for his behaviour - and Wigan have now drawn a line under the situation."He's back, has apologised, now it's time to let him get over this injury, " Bruce told the Evening Post."I think he will be available for Blackburn (a week on Sunday) and I'd have no qualms picking him - I have to think about the team."My job is to get the best out of the games we have remaining this season."If we had bundles and bundles of players available, it might be a different scenario with Zaki, but we haven't. So I'll do what I think is best for the team."[LNB]
