WIGAN TRIAL FOR M'BAMI
M'Bami - on trial at Wigan.
Wigan manager Roberto Martinez has taken Cameroon international Modeste M'Bami on a week's trial.
The 26-year-old midfielder is a free agent following the expiry of his previous contract over the summer with Olympique Marseille.
Despite his pedigree - M'Bami has 28 caps and seven goals to his name with Cameroon - he has to prove to Martinez he is worthy of a deal.
"Modeste has a great pedigree and a great curriculum with top teams around the continent," said Martinez.
"He can control the tempo of the game with his ability and experience.
"He has a sharp brain, can see a pass quickly and can operate in a few positions around the midfield area.
"We'll be assessing him over the next week and see what happens."
