MAX POWER has rejoined Wigan on a two-year deal following his release from Sunderland.
The midfielder, who previously played for the Latics between 2015 and 2018, is back at the DW Stadium after a three-year spell with the Black Cats.
The 27-year-old was Sunderland's skipper for most of last season, and made 53 appearances for the Black Cats in all competitions last term, but was released at the end of his contract.
He told Wigan’s official website: “I’m over the moon. Coming back here today has brought back some great memories, and I’m just delighted that the deal is done.
“I’ve always kept an eye on the club, and I always felt that I would return one day so to be back here is a great feeling.
“I’m really excited. I’ve seen who has come through the door already, and I think the club has made some really good signings, which shows the intent is there.
“I’m coming back here to hopefully create more memories and I can’t wait to get back to the DW Stadium.”
