Wigan Athletic have signed Leyton Orient striker Sonny Perkins for an undisclosed fee on a two-year deal.

The 22-year-old joined Orient from Leeds United in June 2024 and scored four goals in 46 league appearances.

"I've had some big experiences at a young age and some tough ones as well," he told the club website.

"Now it's about consistently showing what I can do, and I'm very confident I can do that here. I'm really looking forward to it."
