Wigan Athletic F.C., a privately owned entity headquartered in the UK, was founded in 1932 and operates with an estimated 170 employees. The company reported $56.7M in revenue as of 2023 and functions as a tier 2 media tech buyer. Functioning primarily as an English professional association football club based in Wigan, Greater Manchester, England, competing in the Championship, the second tier of the English football league system, the company's main product also includes media and TV services.
Wigan Athletic is reportedly nearing a transfer capture from Queens Park Rangers, a move that could address the recent sale of Sam Tickle to Bristol City. This potential acquisition follows a period of squad rebuilding, during which Wigan Athletic signed Jeremiah Chilokoa-Mullin, Akeel Higgins, Sonny Perkins, Connor Barrett, and Max Power. Previously, on June 15, 2026, Sporting Director Gregor Rioch departed the club after more than 12 years, having initially joined from Coventry City in December 2013 as Academy Manager. The club also made other changes to its recruitment and coaching teams following his departure. Earlier in June, Chelsea reportedly agreed a deal to sign Wigan Athletic’s attacking midfielder Harrison Bettoni. Bettoni, who came through Wigan’s academy, made his debut in a September 2025 EFL Trophy match against Salford City.
