Wigan Athletic have made a three million euro offer to Espanyol to sign Ghana midfielder Mubarak Wakaso, GHANAsoccernet.com can confirm.
The relegated Premier League side are looking to strengthen their side ahead of their debut continental campaign in the Europa League following their FA Cup success.
Chairman Dave Whelan wants to send a clear sign of the club?s ambition of a quick Premier League return and progress in Europe next season hence his decision to splash the cash again.
Wigan ars said to have made a double bid of 6m euros for the Espanyol duo of Wakaso and Jordi Amat ? each costing 3m euros.
It is however unlikely the Spanish club will be releasing the Ghana international to the relegated English top flight side with growing interests from other elite European clubs including Inter Milan.
Espanyol will also be looking to get more cash from the sale of Wakaso in order to honour their co-ownership deal with Villareal.
Amat who spent last season on loan at Rayo Vallecano thus serves as a possible preposition with the Blue and Whites in desperate need of some financial injection.
