“Since acquiring the club in 2023, our priority has been to stabilise Wigan Athletic after a period of significant turmoil, and we are proud of the progress made,” the statement added.
“Earlier this year, the Danson family took the decision to explore options for bringing additional investment into the club to support its long-term ambitions. This was a decision taken by the ownership, not the wider board.
“What we can say clearly is this: we will not hand this club to anyone who does not share our commitment to its stability, its community role, and its future.
“The Danson family remains fully engaged in the day-to-day running of the club, and that will not change unless and until we are satisfied that any new investment or ownership would be in the best interests of Wigan Athletic.”
