Presumably he’s gone now because Wigan just don’t see the point in having him around. They’ll have to work out when he plays for Newcastle, when he plays for the reserves etc etc and sort the logistics of that. It saves that headache and makes it clear that if a player doesn’t want to be at the club, they know where the door is. There’s simply no point in Wigan spending the next few months developing him for another side.
Agreed,if a player finds a deal move him on why on earth keep hold of him doing his new club a favour?
The real figure was actually less than that due to him getting absolutely mullered by Curtis Scott in a fight. Scott got sacked but Bateman used it as leverage to come back home and Wigan for him for absolute peanuts
