Wigan sacks manager Shaun Maloney after Reading defeat
Wigan Athletic has dismissed manager Shaun Maloney following a disappointing 2-1 home defeat to Reading, leaving the team 15th in League One, just six points above the relegation zone. Maloney, who had a tumultuous tenure that included relegation from the Championship and a points deduction, recorded only one win in the last seven matches. The club cited underwhelming home performances as a key reason for the decision, stating it was necessary to seek a change for future improvement. Glenn Whelan, a former Republic of Ireland midfielder, has been appointed interim manager along with assistants Graham Barrow and Frankie Bunn. Maloney's time at Wigan included moments of pride, like his contributions to the club's FA Cup victory in 2013, but ultimately fell short in the current League One campaign. The club is now exploring potential candidates for a permanent replacement as they aim to stabilize their position in the league.
