Warren Joyce has been appointed as the new manager of Wigan Athletic.
Joyce joins the club after managing the Manchester United Under 21 and U23 squads for the past eight years.
He has signed a three-and-a-half year contract and will be in the DW Stadium dugout for the first time when the Latics face Reading this Saturday, November 5.
Joyce will meet his squad for the first time on Thursday morning to take charge of his first training session as manager.
Wigan Athletic chairman David Sharpe said Joyce is someone he has admired for a long time and is convinced he is the perfect choice to take the club forward.
