Where next for Victor Moses: Arsenal, Liverpool or Newcastle?

Although Wigan's scintillating form looks like sealing yet another dramatic escape from relegation this year, keeping hold of prized 21-year-old winger, Victor Moses, could prove a much greater challenge.

Moses joined the Latics from Crystal Palace for £2.5m and he continues to repay faith shown in his potential by Roberto Martinez, the man who bought him in 2010.

This season, Moses has struck four goals and laid on six assists to help transform Wigan from relegation dead-certs into free-flowing favourites to say afloat.

Man-of-the-match performances against Chelsea, Man United and Arsenal have further fuelled speculation linking him with a move away from the DW Stadium.

The sale of Antonio Valencia to Man United in 2009 rubber-stamped Wigan's status as a selling club, forced to make profit on players to keep ticking over at the highest level, so where next for their latest wing wizard?

ARSENAL
Theo Walcott's uncertain form will not be lost on manager Arsene Wenger, who witnessed another low key performance from his inconsistent winger against Wigan. Arsenal's slick passing and quick breakaways rely on world class wing play to puncture opponent's back lines - it's an area the Gunners will undoubtedly look to strengthen this summer. If Wenger misses out on Eden Hazard, he would take great pleasure in snapping up Moses for relative peanuts.

LIVERPOOL
Liverpool's lack of goals this term have dented any hopes of Champions League qualification for another year, despite impressive domestic cup form. The root of the problem arguably lies out wide, where Stewart Downing has failed to score or assist in the Premier League. That simply isn't good enough from a player who bagged seven goals and created another seven for Aston Villa last season. Meanwhile, Dirk Kuyt looks to be heading for the Anfield exit door. The Reds need reinforcements this summer and Moses fits the bill.
NEWCASTLE

Newcastle's stunning season under Alan Pardew has raised hopes of a return to regular Champions League challenges. The top four push this season, spearheaded by a string of impressive signings, will only encourage Pardew to continue with his philosophy of buying wisely, but without spending silly money. Victor Moses could be a good fit and would provide competition for Jonas Gutierrez and Hatem Ben Arfa.

Should Moses look to move on from Wigan or can he continue his development best with the Latics? Let us know by leaving a comment below...
