Striker Eoin Doyle has joined the Latics on loan from Preston North End until 1st January. Doyle is 29-years-old and is looking forward to his new challenge at Boundary Park. He is familiar with Ollie Banks and Dan Gardner after a recent spell at Chesterfield.
He said, “I’m delighted to come here. When I got the phone call I was excited to come and I hope I can contribute, get a few goals and help the team out. He [John Sheridan] rang me and when I got the phone call it made me even more excited to join the club. Hopefully I can play my part and do well for him. They [Banks and Gardner] are both good lads and I enjoyed my time with them It’s always nice to have a friendly face in the dressing room, especially in the first couple of days, so I will be sitting beside those tomorrow.”
