The Englishman only featured one time in the Championship for Tony Mowbray’s side, coming off the bench in a 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest in October 2020.

Brennan failed to feature in a competitive game for the team this season, mostly playing in the underage competition Premier League 2.

Blackburn go into the final round of games on Saturday with the team ninth in the table, facing Birmingham City at St. Andrew's to conclude their campaign on May 7.

The Verdict

Brennan making a move away from Blackburn appears to be the right decision at this point in his career.

Wigan have earned promotion to the Championship so could offer him second division football if they do make him an offer.

But he simply wasn’t getting the playing time to justify staying at Ewood Park any longer.

His performances at underage level showed that he has a lot of talent, but now he needs to make the step up to senior level football.
