The 32 year stopper has commanded a total of £7 million in transfer fees during his career, and despite managing 32 apearances for Bolton last term, they deemed him surplus to requirements. Their loss is no doubt our gain.
Thome's career so far has seen him play for Sheffield Wednesday, Chelsea, Sunderland and Bolton. He stands at 6 ft 1 and will provide plenty of competition for Breckin and Jackson at the heart of our defence.
When asked about the move, Thome told the official site:"I'm really pleased to get my future sorted out and I'm delighted to sign for Wigan Athletic after the interest they have shown in me. I can't wait to get started now and am already looking forward to my first training session with my new team-mates on Thursday morning."
