Ryan Lowe says he's 'very hopeful' Wigan Athletic will be able to add to their squad before the players return for pre-season training at the end of the month. The Latics head coach - who replaced Shaun Maloney in March - has so far added only Scottish midfielder Fraser Murray to his squad this summer, on a free transfer from Kilmarnock.

Ollie Norburn says he turned down offers from League One before opting to drop down into League Two with Notts County following his departure from Wigan Athletic. The 32-year-old midfielder spent the second half of the 2024/25 campaign on loan with Latics from Blackpool. With his contract at Blackpool up this summer, he had plenty of interest from various clubs, before deciding to put pen to paper with the Magpies.

Wigan Athletic Academy product Adam Long has joined Northern Ireland outfit Coleraine. The 24-year-old, who hails from the Isle of Man, left Wigan for Doncaster Rovers in the summer of 2022. And after a year with AFC Fylde, he moves back across the Irish Sea. “He will bring a real physical presence, he’s a big man and he gives you balance by being a left-footed centre-back," said Coleraine boss Ruaidhri Higgins.

Former Wigan Athletic star Michael Jacobs has secured a return to League One by returning to where it all started at Northampton Town. The 33-year-old was without a club after seeing out his contract with League Two outfit Chesterfield. And he has moved up a division by joining his first professional club on a 12-month deal. Rothwell-born Jacobs won two League One titles with Latics under Gary Caldwell and Paul Cook between 2015 and 2020.

Craig Mahon - the brother of former Wigan Athletic star Alan - has been confirmed as the new head coach of National League outfit AFC Fylde. The 35-year-old joins from fellow National League North side Curzon Ashton, where he has spent the last five years as both player and coach before being appointed permanent manager in 2024. He'd also been working full-time with the Wigan Athletic Community Trust, having started his playing career with Latics a couple of decades ago.
