Wigan Athletic have signed striker Antoine Sibierski on a free transfer from Newcastle.
"The manager impressed me hugely and this is clearly a very ambitious club. I can't wait to get started."
Sibierski has made 118 appearances in the Barclays Premiership and previously played for Lens, Nantes, Auxerre and Lille.
Wigan manager Chris Hutchings said: "Antoine is a player I have admired a lot ever since he came to England. He is strong and committed and will give everything to the cause.
"He is a player who can fill a number of different positions, in midfield or as a striker and I'm delighted to be able to add him to the squad."
