SIGNING: Talented Young Defender Pens Long-Term Deal

Oldham Athletic are delighted to announce the permanent signing of Robert Hunt from Brighton & Hove Albion.

Hunt, who spent time on loan with Latics last season, joins the club on a three-year deal.

The 21-year-old joined on loan in January and made his debut against Bradford City coming on as a 84th minute substitute before making his first start in the 0-1 win over Chesterfield. 

The youngster went on to make 10 appearances under John Sheridan last season before a groin injury ruled him out for the season.

Hunt has now penned a long-term deal with the club with the terms of the deal undisclosed. 

Welcome back, Rob!
