Junior this week joined Norwegian club Stromsgodset on a permanent deal.

“He’s somebody who did excellently while he was here despite a couple of niggling injuries,” the Wigan boss said.
“If the opportunity had come up to take him back we would have looked into it, but it never really materialised.
“We wish him well, he’s a fantastic talent and hopefully he finds a home in which he can settle and show off that talent.”
