Wigan Athletic manager Roberto Martinez is reportedly interested in signing Charlton Athletic's Ivory Coast Under 20's star Serge Deble.


Serge who has played for the Addicks on eight occasions, netting twice, is currently on loan at French outfit Angers. He is seen as a rising star and is already valued in the million pound bracket despite his tender years.

Should he arrive in Wigan, which incidentally is twinned with Angers, he would be welcomed by Latics' own Ivory Coast star Steve Gohouri who would doubtless take the youngster under his wing.

Blackburn Rovers are also monitoring the situation.
