Nineteen included in Latics squad
Latics could have named up to 25 players in their first-team fold, but have opted to select a smaller group as they do not have enough 'home-grown' players to meet new regulations. With a number of young players who fall under the age of 21 on their books, it has been decided that they still have enough bodies to last the course. The likes of Franco Di Santo, Tom Cleverley, Victor Moses and James McCarthy do not have to be registered in the Premier League squad lists as top flight clubs can call upon as many players of their age group as they like. New arrivals Mauro Boselli, Antolin Alcaraz, James McArthur, Ronnie Stam, Ali Ab Habsi and Steven Caldwell have been selected by Martinez. Charles N'Zogbia is another to make the cut, as he remains at the DW Stadium despite being heavily linked with a move elsewhere. Dutch winger Daniel De Ridder has also been handed a place in the squad despite struggling to make an impact with Latics. Wigan squad: Chris Kirland, Mike Pollitt, Charles N'Zogbia, Emmerson Boyce, Gary Caldwell, Ben Watson, Steven Caldwell, Hendry Thomas, Ronnie Stam, Jorid Gomez, Hugo Rodallega, Mohamed Diame, Maynor Figueroa, Steve Gohouri, Daniel De Ridder, Ali Al Habsi, Antolin Alcaraz, James McArthur, Mauro Boselli.
