Athletic have signed Daniel Johnson from Aston Villa on a two-month loan deal. Johnson is Jamaican and started at Crystal Palace before moving to Villa Park.
Latics boss Lee Johnson said, "I'm pleased to get him. It will be difficult to pick a team now. We have a host of midfielders playing well and competing for only a few spots. It’s a nice problem to have. Our squad is a lot stronger than it has been for years."
