Wigan have made a bid for Reading star Stephen Hunt.
As revealed by skysports.com earlier this month Wigan boss Steve Bruce has earmarked Hunt as one of his top targets in the transfer window.
Bruce has money to spend after selling Wilson Palacios to Tottenham and he has now firmed up his interest in the Republic of Ireland international.
Hunt is believed to have £5million buy-out clause in his contract and Latics boss Bruce is thought to have tabled a bid in that region.
Reading are reluctant to lose the talented winger as they target promotion, but accept they cannot stand in his way if they receive a fee of £5million for his services.
Hunt has never hidden his desire to return to the Premier League and the former Brentford man is expected to hold talks with Wigan over a possible move to the JJB Stadium.
