MK Dons have signed Wigan Athletic winger Ryan Colclough on a season-long loan deal.

The 21-year-old impressed at struggling Crewe Alexandra last season, scoring 12 goals.

He then moved to Wigan in January where he helped them gain promotion to The Championship.

I’m ecstatic. He’s somebody who I tried to sign last season and has been one of our main targets for six months.

He made his second-ever professional appearance against us and I remember watching his debut while we prepared for that game against Crewe.

He can play off both sides. He comes from a club like Wigan, who play a similar style and he started at Crewe, which means he’s been developed properly.

He’s very direct. He’s aggressive in his finishing and I think he’s certainly someone who can make us a better team. He’ll make us more dynamic offensively, being a goalscoring wide player.

– Karl Robinson, MK Dons Manager
