Martinez: Young stars not for sale

Wigan manager Roberto Martinez has stressed Victor Moses and James McCarthy are not for sale but did not offer the same reassurances over striker Hugo Rodallega.

The Latics boss is determined not to sell his two 21-year-old "assets" but accepts the situation with Rodallega, whose contract expires this summer, is somewhat different. Moses has been linked with a move back to London with QPR while McCarthy has been on the radar of some of the Barclays Premier League's bigger clubs for some time.

However, Martinez is adamant he will not allow his squad to be weakened with a vital four months remaining of their relegation battle. "Victor Moses is not for sale. He is one of the biggest assets we have at the club," said the Spaniard.
