Zaki out of Wigan squad

Amr Zaki will not be involved in tomorrow’s Premier League clash with Arsenal at the JJB Stadium regardless of whether he is fit or not.

The Latics striker sustained a hamstring injury while on international duty with Egypt, resulting in an unauthorised absence that has had boss Steve Bruce fuming.

Bruce is due to sit down with Zaki today to discuss his future, but has made it clear the 26-year-old will not figure against Arsenal, even if he has recovered from the injury.

Bruce has otherwise a fully-fit squad to choose from, other than midfielder Cho Won-hee who is out for the season after tearing a calf muscle playing for South Korea.

Team (from): Kirkland, Melchiot, Bramble, Boyce, Figueroa, Watson, Brown, Koumas, Scharner, Kapo, N’Zogbia, De Ridder, Rodallega, Valencia, Sibierski, Mido, Kingson, Edman.
