Wigan snap up former Swan Gomez

By published

New Wigan Athletic manager Roberto Martinez has signed Espanyol's Spanish midfielder Jordi Gomez, the Premier League club said on Friday.

Gomez, 24, has signed a three-year deal but no fee has been announced. He spent last season on loan with Martinez's former club Swansea City.

"Jordi is a real quality player. A great left foot and extremely pleasing on the eye as a player," Martinez told the club website.
