Oldham have confirmed the signing of the vastly experienced Liam Hogan on a two-year contract.
The 33-year-old defender, whose professional career spans more than ten years with seven clubs, joins Latics straight on the back of a second promotion from the National League with Stockport County last season.
Hogan featured more than 80 times at Edgeley Park over a period of two-and-a-half years, culminating in captaining the squad that claimed the title on the final day of the campaign.
On completing his first addition of the summer, manager John Sheridan said: “I’m really pleased to have secured the services of a player who has had real success in the division we’ll be playing in next season.
“Liam is an excellent defender, a clear winner, and his experience in the National League will be a huge asset to us during the season ahead.
“It’s vital that we build a squad around players who have been successful at the level we’re going in at. Liam ticks all of those boxes, including a number of seasons in the EFL, and the fact he becomes our first signing shows how much I wanted to secure his services.”
