Is it Carlin Isles that you have been told trained with Wigan? There's a video of him on another thread on here and he's absolutely lightning quick. Would be a great coup if we can get him, pace is something that can't be taught.

I would not expect him to slot straight into any team, yes speed helps but its different taking a few big knocks, as Dwaine Chambers, one big hit and he went missing for the game

American Top 40 Sprinter apparently.

A real talent IMO is Christian Wade who could like Offiah become frustrated at opportunities for full England RU honours.

He is supposed to be one of the fastest men on the planet, there is a link on Cherry and Whites showing him. I was told that he trained at Wigan and then went with the squad for the winter training to gain experience I do not know how to make the website go live so you may have to cut and paste.
With the rumour surrounding the player who trained with the club pre-season re-emerging, does this mean this american guy is back on the "radar" ?
