Wigan Athletic's Franco Di Santo nearing '100% fitness'

Di Santo close to full fitness

Wigan Athletic striker Franco Di Santo has revealed that he should recover from his calf injury in time for next weekend.

The 23-year-old has been struggling to ease back into the Premier League after picking up a problem during the Latics' 4-0 defeat to Manchester United last month.

"I am nearly back to 100% and hopefully by the end of this international break I'll be back to where I was," Di Santo told the Wigan Evening Post.

"This break is a good opportunity for everyone to work on their fitness as well as skills, and I don't think I am far away from where I want to be."

Wigan take on Swansea City next weekend.
