Saydee Signs! Latics Land Powerful Striker from Pompey
Wigan Athletic have made another exciting move in the transfer market, snapping up striker Christian Saydee from Portsmouth on a permanent deal.
The 23-year-old joins the Tics on a three-year contract, and while the fee is officially undisclosed, this one feels like smart business all round — a young, hungry forward with Championship experience and bags of potential.
💬 “He’s Got a Point to Prove – and We’re Here For It”
Saydee’s journey has seen him rise through the ranks at Bournemouth before loan spells at Burton Albion and Shrewsbury Town. Most recently, he played his part in Portsmouth’s League One promotion push before getting a taste of the Championship last season. Now, he’s ready to make his mark in blue and white.
Let’s be honest – we lacked a bit of cutting edge up top last season and it feels like Saydee could bring somethinf different in under Lowe.
⚽ Stats Don’t Tell the Whole Story
Yes, he only scored three in the Championship last year, but anyone who watched Pompey will tell you that he’s more than just the numbers.
🔵 Looking Ahead
Ryan Lowe clearly sees Saydee as part of the plan going forward. Pre-season is just around the corner and we can’t wait to see him link up with the squad as we get ready for a huge season ahead. The fixtures drop soon and we’re already buzzing for opening day.
Welcome to Wigan, Christian.
