Liverpool Keeper Adam Bogdan Agrees One-Year Loan Deal With Wigan Athletic
"?Liverpool keeper Adam Bogdan has agreed a one-year loan deal with Championship side Wigan Athletic after completing a medical on Wednesday, according to "?wiganlatics.co.uk.
After passing his medical, the 28-year-old has been thrown into the squad straight away, joining up with is new teammates ahead of Thursday evening's pre-season friendly against Macclesfield Town.
Wigan manager Gary Caldwell has expressed his delight at signing the Hungarian international ahead of the new campaign, and explained how he jumped at the chance at acquiring the keeper when he became available:
"When we found out Adam was available, it was a move I really wanted to push through."

"He has great experience and will add immense competition for both Jussi Jaaskelainen and Lee Nicholls, which is what you need to drive the club forward."
"He obviously knows Jussi from his time at Bolton, he knows the area, the training ground is familiar to him and I'm sure he will be a great addition to the squad."
Having joined the Reds last summer on a free transfer, the Hungarian has struggled to make an impact on Liverpool's starting XI. In his first Premier League start under coach Jurgen Klopp away to Watford, he dropped an attempted catch from a corner which led to their first goal, and ended up conceding two more in a 3-0 loss to forget.
He then started against West Bromwich Albion at Anfield in the last game of the 2015/16 season, only to concede once more with Liverpool drawing 1-1.
Bogdan has made most of his professional appearances for his first English club Bolton, to which he spent eight years, making over 100 appearances for the now League One side.
