Wigan move for two South Korean stars to help seal sponsorship deal

Wigan boss Steve Bruce is trying to sign two South Korean stars - in a bid to clinch a lucrative sponsorship deal.

Bruce's spies went to the Olympics to watch Park Chu-Young and Lee Chun-Soo as part of a potential commercial tie-up in Asia.

Latics chief executive Brenda Spencer and general manager John Benson spent a week in South Korea, talking to businesses about various ventures.

And signing either striker Park, who plays for FC Seoul, or former Feyenoord midfielder Lee would help them to crack that market.
