Wigan Athletic have confirmed the signing of Australian midfielder Tyrese Francois on a two-year deal after he left Fulham.
Francois, who turned 24 this week, came through the ranks at Craven Cottage and made his professional debut in the 2019-20 season.
After time on loan at Danish club Vejle Boldklub last season, he left Fulham this summer but is excited about his “next chapter”.
“I am very happy to be here, and I can’t wait to get started,” he said.
“It was a massive decision, but it’s the next chapter. I need to play games and show what I can do, and this is the perfect step for me.
“I’m not the biggest in size so I pride myself on being technically good. I like the ball at my feet but to run and put my heart on my sleeve. I will do as much as I can for the team. Hopefully, I can excite the fans and bring positive results.”
