Wigan Athletic are in for a busy week on and off the pitch as they catch up on postponed games and try to seal the deal on potential signings.
Wigan Athletic had a successful last week with a 2-1 away win at Doncaster Rovers and the signings of Josh Magennis and Graeme Shinnie. Leam Richardson’s side are definitely hoping the next seven days will be similar.

Possible signings?
The Latics have been linked with a move for Cambridge United left-back Jack Iredale, while Millwall striker Matt Smith was also mentioned.
Sheffield United midfielder Regan Slater is said to be on their radar after helping Hull City win the League One title alongside Magennis last season.
They have also been credited with an interest in Bohemian defender Andrew Lyons, as well as the likes of Shrewsbury Town and Plymouth Argyle.
Morecambe and Gillingham tests
Wigan will sideline one of their games on Tuesday night when they travel to Morecambe. The Shrimps are in the relegation zone but caused problems for teams traveling to Mazuma Stadium.
The ‘Tics will see the in-form Cole Stockton as a threat as he looks to reclaim his place as top scorer.
Latics then meet Gillingham, another side currently sitting in the relegation zone, at DW Stadium on Saturday. Gillingham is currently without a win in 14 games and after the recent sacking of Steve Evans without a manager.
