Liverpool defender Calvin Ramsay has joined League One side Wigan on loan, his third temporary switch.
Ramsay has endured a torrid time since joining Liverpool from Aberdeen in 2022, with injury hampering his progress.
After a torturous first campaign on Merseyside, the right-back joined Preston on loan last summer.
His time in the North End was cut short in January due to a lack of appearances, but his replacement for Bolton fared no better.
As player and club aim to make up for lost time, Liverpool quickly agreed a new season-long loan deal with Wigan.
?? We are pleased to confirm the signing of the loan @CalvinRamsay until the end of the 2024/25 campaign!
Welcome to Tics, Calv! ?#wafc ???

Ramsay will spend the 2024/25 campaign at the Brick Community Stadium, joining Shaun Maloney’s squad crucially for the start of pre-season.
This is the third such deal the two clubs have struck in the past 12 months, with James Balagizi and Luke Chambers also spending time at Wigan.
Chambers’ half-season has proved to be a huge success, with the defender starting 17 of his 18 appearances since arriving in January, with a goal and three assists.
Liverpool will be hoping for a similarly productive time for Ramsay, who is in desperate need of game time to revive his lagging fortunes at Anfield.
The Scot only turns 21 in July, with plenty of time on his side, but the reality is that he has played just under 10 hours of football in the last two years.
“Calvin is an excellent profile who will bring aggression and attacking talent to both the right and left side of defence,” Maloney told Wigan’s official website.
“Calvin is extremely motivated to help our team achieve success this season and will join us on the first day of preseason.
“I look forward to working with Calvin and helping him adjust as quickly as possible.”
Good luck, Calvin!
