This looks more a Eurasian Wigeon x American Wigeon hybrid.

Some studies and photos of hybrids can be found here: http://birdhybrids.blogspot.com/ ... -hybrid-birds.html.

Thank you for your clarification.

Dear Bart, I came across this blog http://gobirdingeu.blogspot.com/2012/12/variation-in-wigeons.html and suggested that birds like this are variant but pure Eurasian Wigeon, though it can’t be excluded the possibility that birds with American Wigeon ancestors (but not first generation hybrids) might look like this too.
