Former loanee Nathan Broadhead who was with us last year has completed a loan move to Wigan amid speculation that he could have returned to Wearside. A key factor in the move was playing time, which would have been limited at Sunderland with Ellis Simms and Ross Stewart starting the season well.
WIGAN
“I’m very excited for the challenge ahead and I’m buzzing to be here. It’s a good environment and it [the loan move] makes sense for myself. The manager persuaded me to come here so I’m looking forward to it."
TALENTS
“I like to think that I’m a flair player and I’m quick. I can score headers, as well as being able to score with both feet. Hopefully I can score many goals for Wigan."
CHALLENGE
“It’s a massive challenge to prove myself in the Championship and I’m looking forward to it. I’m looking forward to getting my fitness up now and getting game time, as playing games is massive for your fitness."
EXCITED
“I think the team has a good team spirit looking in from the outside, so I’m looking forward to getting to know the lads and joining in with that.”
