Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Emile Heskey appears poised to leave Wigan in January following the latest remarks from chairman Dave Whelan.
Heskey is out of contract next summer and has so far shown no sign of urgency to put pen to paper on a new deal.
With the 30-year-old having rekindled his career at Wigan of late, thrusting himself back into the fold with England, Whelan appears eager to cash in rather than lose him for nothing next summer.
"Emile is out of contract in the summer, but he doesn't want to sign a new one at the moment," said Whelan.
"It could cost us two, three or four million (pounds) if that goes on to next summer, so we'll have to see what January brings."
Heskey cost Wigan a club record £5.5m when he joined from Birmingham in the summer of 2006, since when he has scored 15 goals in 81 league and cup appearances.
