The Oman international goalkeeper has overtaken Chris Kirkland as number one at the club after impressing in the Carling Cup against Hartlepool United earlier in the season.
Speaking to the club's official website, Al Habsi drpped a big hint that he wuld like to remain with the Latics full time when he said: "At the moment, I'm full of confidence and loving every minute of being at Wigan Athletic.
"I feel as though I've been here three-years not three months. Everyone associated with the club has been fantastic, the facilities are superb and it's been like one big family."
The Bolton loanee also revealed that he was delighted with his clean sheet against Birmingham on Saturday.
"As individuals we have to help the team and as a team we have to help each other. That's all I was doing by making the save and it went some way to securing an important point," he added.
"Together with the rest of the defence we had a tough game last weekend. Birmingham put you under a lot of pressure with long balls and crosses. But we put in a real team performance and managed to keep a clean-sheet which is crucial at this level."
