Latics frontman expects to leave in the summer

Wigan striker Hugo Rodallega has confirmed he wants to leave the Premier League strugglers and is considering his options. The Colombia international is out of contract with the Latics at the end of the season and will be available on a free transfer. Manager Roberto Martinez has already said he would rather keep the 26-year-old and risk losing him for nothing in the summer than cash in on him this month. Rodallega, who arrived at the DW Stadium from Mexican side Necaxa for £4.5million in 2009, says he does not intend to stay at Wigan beyond the end of his deal. "My contract at Wigan runs out at the end of May and I hope this situation gets resolved - but I can already say these are my last three months with Wigan," he told Caracol Radio. The frontman says he is in talks with a number of sides but has refused to name them "out of respect for Wigan", currently rock-bottom of the table.
