Whelan rules out selling Rodallega

Wigan Athletic chairman Dave Whelan has ruled out selling Colombian striker Hugo Rodallega in the January transfer window.

Whelan also insists he also plans to keep the club’s other star players until the end of the season.

“We don’t want to sell Hugo, full stop, but we are Wigan and have to be sensible,” said Whelan. “But there is no chance of selling Hugo in the window. We are selling no-one in the window.

“Those kind of players are the difference between staying up and getting relegated. You’ve got to score goals to stay up. He is just brilliant, that lad, a wonderful player.

“Rodallega could have had two or three goals against Wolves. He is so quick but it wouldn’t go in for him. He is normally lethal as a striker and is a real handful.”
