Midfielder Jensen Weir has joined League One Wigan Athletic on a permanent basis, on undisclosed terms.

Men’s first-team head coach Fabian Hurzeler said, “I have only known Jensen a short time, but I have been impressed with his attitude and professionalism.

“This is a great opportunity for him, at a club he knows well. We would like to wish him every success for the future and thank him for his efforts at Brighton.”

The 22-year-old joined the club in 2020 from Wigan, where he made his senior debut at the age of 15 in 2017 to become Wigan’s youngest player.

During his time with Albion, he had successful loan spells with Cambridge United, Morecambe, Blackpool and Port Vale.

He has represented England at under-17, under-18 and under-20 level.
