Super Eagles Defender Balogun Seals Move To Hove Albion

Wigan Athletic have announced the signing of Nigeria’s Super Eagles star Leon Balogun from Premier League side Brighton and Hove Albion until the end of the season.

Balogun has struggled for game time since teaming up with the Seagulls in 2018 from German Bundesliga club Mainz 05, featuring in only 12 games across all competitions.

In his quest to enjoy more action and reignite his career, the 31-year-old defender completed a loan switch to the Championship side on Transfer Deadline Day.

Balogun will hope to help the Latics, who are currently 22nd in the Championship table, avoid relegation at the end of the season.

The centre-back will however not be available for selection when the ‎DW Stadium outfit take on Leeds United on Saturday.
