Latics boss Chris Hutchings said: "He's worked extremely hard, we've given him his chance this year and he's taken it with both hands.
"I knew his capabilities and sometimes it's about getting a chance and the circumstances at which it arises, but it's down to the player at the end of the day, if you get a chance you've got to take it."
Meantime, the club have unveiled the new third kit which will go on sale on the 20th September. Prices will be £35 for juniors and £35 for adults.
