The Latics squad return to training at Chapel Road on Monday 4th July. This leaves them only 12 days to get fit before they take on Huddersfield Town in their first friendly game.
If club captain Liam Kelly completes his move to Leyton Orient it will leave the Boundary Park club very understaffed. Any new manager to be appointed will have only six professionals on the books along with three former scholars who have been offered deals for next season.
Some of the out-of-contract players are waiting for the new appointment before signing deals. The following players have been made available on free transfers: Timothee Dieng, Jonathan Forte, James Wilson, Anthony Gerrard, Brian Wilson, Lee Croft and Dominic Poleon.
