Wigan Athletic have confirmed the signing of experienced striker Paul Mullin from Wrexham AFC, subject to EFL and FA approval, and international clearance.
Mullin has signed a season-long loan deal at the Brick Community Stadium and arrives in Wigan on the back of helping the Welsh outfit become the first team in the history of English football’s top five divisions to secure three successive promotions.
The 30-year-old adds further strength to Ryan Lowe’s striking department ahead of the 2025/26 Sky Bet League One season, with his EFL experience set to be invaluable both on and off the field.
Discussing his move to the Brick Community Stadium, Paul Mullin said:
“I’m excited for the next part of my story. The Gaffer has outlined his plan for the season, and I’m hoping to take his trust into the season and make it a really successful one.
“As a player, I give absolutely everything and work as hard as I can.
“I’ve scored a lot of goals over the last few years, but more than anything, I give my absolute all for the Club that I’m playing for, and I’m going to do that again with Wigan.”
Head Coach Ryan Lowe added:
“I am delighted that we’ve managed to sign Paul. He’ll be a great addition to the group and is a player who is a proven goal scorer in the EFL.
“He has won promotion in his last three seasons with Wrexham AFC and will add firepower, know-how and experience to the group, which is really important.
“He is here because he is hungry to score more goals, win games and contribute to Wigan Athletic Football Club.
“Paul is the type of character we want in the dressing room, and his experience will help support the team on and off the pitch.”
He becomes Latics’ third acquisition of the summer, following the arrivals of Kilmarnock midfielder Fraser Murray and Portsmouth marksman Christian Saydee.
