Wigan Athletic close in on Premier League midfielder

Wigan Athletic are reportedly closing in on the loan capture of attacking midfielder Luke Harris from Fulham.

Journalist Pete O'Rourke has reported that Harris is due to have a medical today ahead of finalising his loan move.

Harris has made eight appearances in all competitions for Fulham and he also represented Wales at Under 21 level on 11 occasions.

The 21-year-old has previously had loan moves at Exeter City and Birmingham City, while he also made 10 appearances for Oxford United in the Championship last season.

League One

Wigan finished 16th in League One last season and they will be targeting at least a top-half finish this time around.

Gary Caldwell's side opened their league campaign away at Cambridge United at the weekend but they suffered a 3-2 defeat in their curtain-raiser.

The Latics also fell at the first hurdle in the EFL Cup as they lost on penalties at Barnsley the previous weekend.

Caldwell is keen to add quality to his squad and he will be hoping that Harris can help to kickstart his side's campaign.
