Wolverhampton Wanderers allow Lee Evans to join Wigan Athletic on loan

Wolverhampton Wanderers allow midfielder Lee Evans to sign a season-long loan deal with Wigan Athletic.

League One outfit Wigan Athletic have completed the season-long loan signing of Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Lee Evans.

The Welsh Under-21 international made 18 appearances for the Championship outfit last season, but he has dropped down the pecking order at Molineux since the arrival of Nuno Espirito Santo.

A number of clubs were said to be interested in the 23-year-old's signature, but he has opted to make the switch to the DW Stadium.

Manager Paul Cook told the club's official website: "Lee's a classy player and somebody who has been playing at a good level for a number of years.

"We do have a number of players in midfield at the moment but I feel you can never be too strong in that department, especially over the course of a season in which we're going to play over 50 games.

"I am sure once he's settled in, Lee is the type of player the fans will really warm to."

During the 2015-16 campaign, Evans made 35 appearances at the third tier while on loan at Bradford City.
