With Emile Heskey fever gripping the nation it seems the big man is getting a big head. After rightfully earning plaudits for his performances on the national stage Hesk' has stated he is "keeping his options open."

He said: ""It would be lovely (re-signing for Liverpool). We'll see how it goes."

Despite the increased media attention and rumoured interest from his former club, Heskey has said he will continue to give 110% for Wigan and that he may sit down and discuss a new contract. He added: "I'm going to keep my options open and give 110% for Wigan and see how it goes and maybe sit down with them."
