We need to see the extent of the problem, but he is on crutches at the moment. We will assess him.The Latics meet West Brom and Swansea before the FA Cup final and end the season with games against Arsenal and Aston Villa.The Honduras international sustained the injury when he stretched to make a tackle on Spurs striker Jermain Defoe.The 29-year-old suffered a groin problem in the 2-2 draw with Tottenham and was carried off on a stretcher. It is a groin strain. It was [a great tackle], but the groin got stretched and the rest of the body pulled apart," said Martinez.The initial reaction is that Figueroa should be out for the season," said Latics boss Roberto Martinez.If Figueroa is sidelined for the remainder of the campaign, the Wigan ever-present will be sorely missed by his side as they battle against relegation as well as facing City in the Wembley showpiece.
