After spending 3 seasons with Cardiff City, Andrew Taylor is seeing his way out of the club which suffered from relegation as they concluded the previous term of the Premier League campaign at the very last spot of the English league.
“Wigan Athletic is a big club, with Premier League experience and big aspirations. I spoke to the manager Uwe Rosler for about 30 minutes and, after I’d put the phone down, I was immediately on to my agent to say that’s the club for me.” Taylor told Wigan’s official website.
Uwe Rosler expressed his delight about signing the 27 year old defender from Cardiff City as he considers the English player to be a top and reliable performer who will only get better.
Uwe Rosler said: “I’m very, very happy to get a player of Andrew’s stature and experience to our football club. He is a very experienced and reliable player who is at the best stage of his career and I’m looking forward to working with him. I think that will do us very well as a team in next season’s campaign, especially when we’re bringing in younger players who need experienced players on the side to develop in the best way. He’s willing to go forward, participating in our play offensively and he’s another cornerstone in our team for next season.”
Wigan Athletic is eager to get into the Premier League and play against some of the best clubs that England has to offer and this is one of the main motivations on why Rosler is performing actively in the transfer market.
Aaron Taylor-Sinclair is one of the other latest signings that Wigan Athletic as he made his way from Partick Thistle as another defensive reinforcement for the Championship League club.
