Derby County and Norwich City are among the clubs keeping an eye on Wigan's Egypt international Sam Morsy.
The 26-year-old, who originally hails from Wolverhampton, is expected to make Egypt's World Cup squad in Russia this summer after figuring in their qualification games.
Full name Samy Sayed Morsy, he qualified to play for the Pharaohs as his father is Egyptian.
Morsy has captained Wigan this season under the guidance of Paul Cook and has helped lead them into second place in League One.
