Uwe Rosler not expecting busy January

Wigan Athletic boss Uwe Rosler quells claims that he will splash the cash this month.

Wigan Athletic boss Uwe Rosler has admitted that he is not expecting to complete too much transfer business this month.

It had been suggested that the former Premier League club would spend big in order to push for promotion from the Championship, but Rosler has played down such claims.

"When the manager comes in at the beginning of the December and then three weeks later the transfer window starts, what do you expect? The budget is spent in terms of the number of players we have in. It's a big squad but that was needed because of the European games," he told reporters at a press conference.

"What [the January transfer window] allows me is it might free up some money on the wage budget to bring in loan players until the end of the season or on a short-term to help us and that is what I'll try to do."

Wigan currently sit 10th in the Championship.
