Marlon Harewood is set to become Wigan manager Chris Hutchings' seventh summer signing, according to Sky Sports News.
The West Ham striker is believed to be in Greater Manchester discussing a potential £4million move to The Latics.
Harewood has already been linked with moves to Manchester City and Birmingham City this summer, but now appears to be on his way to Wigan.
Hutchings, who took over from Paul Jewell in May, has spent £5.3million on West Brom midfielder Jason Koumas and has brought in Newcastle pair Antoine Sibierski and Titus Bramble on free transfers.
Goalkeeper Carlo Nash has also arrived from neighbours Preston, together with former Chelsea defender Mario Melchiot and Helsingborgs defender Andreas Granqvist.

No! Harewood will be making a huge huge mistake by joining Wigan. He should join Newcastle instead.
