Wigan Athletic have sacked Shaun Maloney after a 2-1 home defeat by Reading left the club 15th in League One and with only one win from the past seven league games.
Maloney took charge of the Latics in January 2023 and comfortably kept the club in the third tier despite an eight-point deduction. But despite this achievement, the board feels the club has gone backwards and that a new manager is necessary to improve results.
