Chesterfield are after signing left winger Gevaro Nepomuceno. The 26-year-old, who can also play at left-back, could be in their squad for Saturday's trip to Sutton United. Nepo had just returned from international duty with Curacao where he played two matches in the CONCACAF Nations League.
Another ex-Latics player, Anthony Gerrard, has been stripped of the Chesterfield captaincy after posting messages on Twitter.
