Martinez expects Figueroa to stay

Last updated : 04 August 2010 By Paul Farrington

Figueroa was the subject of interest from Sunderland in January, but he swiftly signed a new contract to pour cold water on those links.

Now, in the face of rumoured interest from Liverpool, Roberto Martinez said of the powerful defender. “I’m sure he will play for one of the great teams but I do not think it’ll be in this transfer market.

“Maynor still has room for improvement with Wigan and to leave before that may be a wrong decision.”
