Wigan Athletic: Transfer deadline day live blog
INCOMING?
Sources north of the border suggesting St Johnstone centre-back Jason Kerr is on his way to Latics...fee of £500k being mentioned...not sure it’s that high but has been a ‘player of interest’ for some time...
EX-LATIC ON THE MOVE
Nicky Maynard has joined Tranmere. Joins Callum McManaman, Charlie Jolley and Chris Merrie there.
IN OTHER NEWS
Away from deadline day, Kieffer Moore will miss all three of Wales’ upcoming games after he was deemed a close contact of goalkeeper Adam Davies, who has tested positive for Covid-19.
Jack Wilshere - ‘rumoured Latics target’ is currently training with Italian side Como. Wigan or Como? Surely a no-brainer...
Still awfully quiet (for now) on the deadline day front at the DW...in other news former Latics defender Jack Hendry set to join Club Brugge from Oostende for 10 million euros. Only left Celtic last month for less than £1.5m. Wow.
ELSEWHERE
Not much happening at the DW (so far) but Saido Berahino from Zulte Waregem (remember them?) to Sheffield Wednesday shaping up to be one of the more intriguing stories of deadline day...
OUTGOINGS?
Latics don’t really have the depth of squad to be contemplating outgoings, but Tom Pearce looks the most likely to leave (if any). Less than 12 months remaining on his contract, he has attracted attention from Championship clubs in the past. Barnsley have been mentioned recently as retaining more than a passing interest. We shall see.
