Manchester United confirms forward has OFFICIALLY made summer move!
Wigan have signed forward Joe Hugill on loan from Manchester United, it has now been announced.
The 20-year-old joins the Latics until the end of the 2024/25 campaign and will wear the number nine shirt, after Manchester United decided that he needed another loan away from the club in order to get some first-team experience.
Hugill, who spent the second half of last season with Burton Albion, said: “I am very delighted to be here. It’s been a long time coming, but I am over the moon to get it done, and can’t wait to get started.
“To get the number nine shirt is a massive honour, and I will wear it with pride. Hopefully, I can show what I can do with it.”
Wigan manager Shaun Maloney said: “I am delighted that we’ve managed to sign Joe. He’ll be a great addition to the group, and I am looking forward to working with him.
“He is a hard-working number nine and has been a natural goal-scorer throughout his time at Manchester United. He has a lot of strong attributes and I am really happy to have him here.”

The lad is now 20 years of age and must start think about a more permanent move away from Manchester United – he has been sent out on loan a number of times over the seasons and not ben given a chance in that Red devils side.
So if he performs well at Wigan – we are sure there is some sort of option to buy the lad at the end of the season -which could be good for the player as he needs a more permanent home than being sent all over the country every season.
But this is a good move for Hugill.
