Wigan sign Cameroon star Olembe

Olembe was released by Marseille in June
Premier League side Wigan have completed the signing of Cameroon left-back Salomon Olembe, subject to international clearance.
The 26-year-old has joined the Latics initially on a one-year deal after his contract at Marseille expired in June.

Olemebe, who previously had a spell at Leeds, has won 60 caps for Cameroon and appeared in the World Cup finals.

Boss Chris Hutchings told Wigan's website: "He knows the demands of the Premier League, he's a clever player."

Olembe will help fill the vacancy in the left-back berth created by Leighton Baines' summer move to Everton.
