“I had options to go to Metz or a German team but I have been in England before and I like the football here and the way people live with football, so I chose to come here,” he said.
“I had contact from Wigan and I decided to come after I spoke to a lot of people here, including Antoine Sibierksi, who told me it was a good club for me and an ambitious club.
“I played with Leeds and I know it’s a good quality in the Premier League. I hope I will progress and give a good, positive attitude to Wigan to help them keep winning.”
