Maloney's switch from Wigan to Leicester collapses

Championship Wigan midfielder Shaun Maloney's proposed move to Premier League side Leicester City has collapsed after he failed to agree personal terms. The Latics agreed a fee believed to be just under £1m for the winger, who is out of contract in the summer.

"He went to talk personal terms - those talks have broken down," Wigan boss Malky Mackay told BBC Radio 5 Live.

"Shaun is back as my player again. I have spoken to him this morning personally. I'm delighted I've still got him.

"He is here until the last day of his contract unless something else happens that changes that.

"There have been another few enquiries and I know that Chicago Fire are a club that are very, very interested in Shaun."
