Man Utd striker Will Keane joins Wigan Athletic on loan

Wigan Athletic have signed Manchester United striker Will Keane on loan.

He could face his twin brother Michael, who agreed a deadline day move to Derby, at the DW Stadium on Sunday.

The 20-year-old, who has made one substitute appearance for United, recently returned to fitness after 16 months out with a serious knee problem.

He has fully recovered from a slight injury he picked up while training with England's Under-21 side and joins the Championship side until 1 January.

Latics manager Owen Coyle confirmed last week that Wigan had a verbal agreement in place to sign Keane and has now been able to complete the loan deal.

Keane, who won the FA Youth Cup with United in 2011, made his only senior appearance for the Premier League champions in December of that year.

He was tipped for a first-team breakthrough before rupturing his cruciate ligament while on international duty with England's Under-19 team.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa winger Marc Albrighton has been recalled from his loan spell at the DW Stadium. The 24-year-old played four times for the FA Cup winners.
