Wigan and Rangers weighing up former West Ham full-back

Skysports.com understands Wigan Athletic and Rangers are keen on former West Ham United defender Lars Jacobsen. The 31-year-old Dane is a free agent after turning down a new deal at West Ham and could have the option of staying in England or moving to Scotland. Jacobsen made 26 appearances for the Hammers last season after joining from Blackburn Rovers, having also played for Everton in the Premier League. Wigan boss Roberto Martinez is looking to improve his options at the DW Stadium after starting the new season with a 1-1 home draw with Norwich City. SPL champions Rangers are also in the market for defensive reinforcements after experiencing several setbacks during the summer. Rangers boss Ally McCoist has mounting injury problems at Ibrox and Jacobsen could be an option to add to his squad.
