Teenage goalkeeper Dan Lavercombe has joined Wigan from Torquay and been loaned back to the Gulls for the remainder of the campaign.

The 19-year-old stopper has penned a two-and-a-half-year deal with Latics following a successful trial and will now stay with Torquay in the Vanarama National League and look to add to his 11 appearances this term.

"Dan is a young goalkeeper who has lots of potential, he's impressed us a lot during the short time that he's been with us," manager Gary Caldwell said on Latics' official website.
