Olympiakos forward Yannis Okkas is being watched by Wigan Athletic, with Charlton Athletic, Manchester City and Osasuna also keen on the Cypriot international.

His agent, Kostas Botos said: "I have contacts with Manchester City, Charlton, Wigan and Osasuna for Yannis.

"The player's contract with Olympiakos expires next June and these clubs are watching him.

"The story with Charlton is not something new.

"They have watched the player for months, while Manchester City, Wigan and Osasuna have come lately.

"It's too early to say more.

"For the moment, I can assure you that the player is happy to play for Olympiakos."

The 28-year-old was formerly with PAOK and AEK Athens and may be tempted by a move away from Greece if the right offer is forthcoming.

 


Meanwhile, The People have reported that Jason Roberts is about to be offered an extension to his current contract, which expires in 2007.
