Report: Wigan Athletic Lead Chase For Swansea's Jason Scotland

The Latics are the favourites for the striker's signature, but they face competition...

FA Cup: Jason Scotland, Swansea City - Fulham (PA)
Wigan Athletic are at the head of the queue to sign Swansea City forward Jason Scotland.

Scotland has been in prolific form for Swansea since he joined them in 2007, scoring 53 goals in all competitions. Understandably, a host of Premier League clubs have taken notice.

According to The Daily Express, Wigan are in pole position to sign the 30-year-old Trinidadian, but they will have to see off stiff competition from the likes of Stoke City, Wolverhampton and West Ham United.

Swansea have set an asking price of  £2 million on Scotland, who has represented his country on 35 occasions, scoring eight times.
