Wolves sign Dicko from Wigan

Nouha Dicko has left Wigan Athletic to join Wolverhampton Wanderers on loan until the end of the season.

The Frenchman scored five goals in 22 appearances during a loan spell with Blackpool earlier this season, and manager Dean Saunders is hopeful that the 20-year-old can make a difference in their attempts to avoid relegation from the Championship.

The Welshman told the club's official website: "He is a young player with good pace and that is something I think will be important for us over the final eight games.

"We needed to do something having lost three players a fortnight ago, and Nouha will bring something different for us.

"He is someone who can play across any of the forward positions, whether out wide or down the middle, and I think that pace could be vital especially away from home."

The winger has made three appearances in the FA Cup for Wigan this season.
