Bruce ready to turn to Zaki

Soccer Betting Lines

04/29/2009 - Wigan, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Wigan boss Steve Bruce is ready to turn to out-of-favor striker Amr Zaki as he looks to revitalize his struggling attack.

The Latics have slipped out of the running for a top-seven finish and a place in Europe next season after three straight defeats in which they have scored just one goal.

Zaki has not started a game for two months after earning the wrath of Bruce when reporting back late from international duty for a third time this season.

But although the on-loan Egypt striker's long-term future at the JJB Stadium is in serious doubt, Bruce is ready to recall Zaki for Saturday's derby visit of Bolton.

"For what he has done, if I had six strikers I would probably go down a different avenue," Bruce told the Wigan Post.

"But the one thing I won't do is leave the team short.

"The team is the most important thing for me - and obviously the club.

"So if I have to use him I will use him. After all we are paying him - when he is here!"
