League One club Wigan Athletic have purchased Bolton Wanderers' training ground facility in Euxton.

The Latics will move their first-team training base there from Christopher Park, which they will now use to train their academy teams.

Bolton, who are 拢172.9m in debt, have looked to sell off assets to raise funds but Dean Holdsworth's consortium is close to completing a takeover.

They will now use to their Lostock facility as well as the Macron Stadium.
