Wigan Athletic have re-signed Brighton midfielder Jensen Weir for an undisclosed fee on a two-year deal.
The 22-year-old came through the Latics academy and became the club's youngest-ever player when he made his debut aged 15 years and 280 days in November 2017.
He joined Brighton for a fee of around £500,000 in July 2020 when Wigan were in administration to help pay wages.
Weir had loan spells with Cambridge United, Morecambe, Blackpool and Port Vale during his spell with the Seagulls.
"We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Jensen back to Wigan Athletic. He’s a player of immense talent and potential, and it’s fantastic to have him return home,"
"Jensen has pushed extremely hard to make this move happen, and we are looking forward to working with him to help him fulfil his talent alongside the team's ambitions."
