Rumours;
McCarthy is Wigan's greatest asset, and several bigger teams, including Everton and Liverpool, have expressed interest. Wigan, of course, would miss him more than any other player.
Wigan need another striker - especially as Kone will be away for a month at the African Nations Cup. Martinez is looking at Kalou, currently at Lille. He would demand high wages - but they would be justified if he could score the goals to avoid relegation. Kalou, however, might feel more at home at West Ham or QPR.
Martinez is also talking to Manchester United about a short-term loan move for teenage striker Angelo Henriquez. He would have other South Americans for company - and Martinez did take Cleverley on loan from United.
Hope you take Henriquez on loan.
Angelo Henriquez has already trained with Wigan and will be available in the New Year. Martinez thinks the 18-year-old Chilean can make the difference in front of goal.
He said, "Henriquez is a goalscorer. He's going to be a top player. He's an out-and-out finisher and he can bring us goals. He comes in straight away to a very familiar dressing room."
I wonder if he will be eligible to play against Manchester United on New Year's Day.
Whispers and rumours;
Aberdeen's Ryan Fraser to go to Celtic, Wigan or Fulham. Fee £1 million plus add ons - brightest young talent in years.
Scotland Under 21 midfielder Fraser Fyvie is close to signing a loan deal from Wigan to Crystal Palace.
Wigan and Reading are interested in signing Derby striker Theo Robinson in the January window.
Wigan want to sign Nick Powell on loan from Manchester United.
Wigan manager Roberto Martinez is keen on adding to his midfield and could sign Jacob Mellis. The Spaniard has had his scouts out looking at the former Chelsea youngster over the last few weeks and could tempt Barnsley with a £400,000 offer.
Bristol City to sell Albert Adomah to Wigan for £4 million.
Reading are looking at purchasing Ronnie Stam from Wigan in a bid to improve their defence.
Kiernan permanent move from Wigan to Brentford. Free with sell on clause.
Rodgers knows Di Santo from their days together as young player and coach at Chelsea. He remains an admirer and if it is a deal he can get done for free next summer to bolster his squad then it will appeal.
Meanwhile Wigan are plotting a £4 million bid for Leeds striker Luciano Becchio.
Burnley; Mauro Boselli - loan from Wigan
David Bentley will choose between QPR and Wigan for a loan until the end of the season.
Wigan Athletic are delighted to announce that Chilean international striker Angelo Henriquez has joined the club on loan for the rest of the season from Manchester United.
Henriquez could make his debut against Bournemouth this Saturday as he is eligible to play in the FA Cup. He will take the Number 11 shirt.
