Wigan Athletic have signed West Ham United defender Kyle Knoyle on a season-long loan.

The teenager, an England Under-18 international, made his Hammers debut in the Europa League defeat by Astra Giurgiu in August 2015.

Latics manager Gary Caldwell told the official club website: "Kyle is a young player with potential, one who has been identified as having the qualities we are looking for and was watched last season.

"We are optimistic he can develop here with us and make a positive contribution to the squad and we're happy to have him on board."

Predominately a right-back, the 19-year-old was on loan at Scottish side Dundee United last season, playing 11 times.
