Wigan Athletic's captain Jason Kerr is set to join Hibernian following his exit from the club, which was confirmed after a disappointing season in League One. The 29-year-old defender was among eight players announced to be leaving the Latics at the start of May, as the club looks to rebuild after struggling in the league. Kerr's departure is part of manager Gary Caldwell's strategy to revamp the squad, aiming to improve the team's fortunes moving forward. Hibernian, who finished fifth in the Scottish Premiership, are keen to bolster their defense and have identified Kerr as a key target. Reports suggest that he will undergo a medical in Edinburgh soon, with the transfer expected to be finalized shortly. This move highlights the significant changes taking place at Wigan Athletic as they prepare for the upcoming season, with Caldwell making tough decisions to reshape the team.
