Victor Moses has signed for Wigan Athletic in a deal worth in the region of £2.5million.
The 19-year-old travelled up to Wigan to discuss terms yesterday and completed a medical this morning.
Moses' agent Tony Finnigan told Sky Sports News that he has signed a three-and-a-half-year deal with the Premier League club.
A number of clubs were after the talented Nigerian born youngster, including Newcastle, West Brom and Nottingham Forest, but the chance to play in the Premier League was the reason for Moses to decide on Wigan.
Moses said: "To play in the Premier League is a dream and I want to thank Roberto Martinez and Wigan for giving me the chance to do that.
"I'm sad to leave Palace because they're a great club and gave me my chance in football and I want to say thanks to everyone there.
"But I need to prove myself now at Wigan and I'm going to focus on getting in the team and doing well for my new club."
The fee for Moses will go towards paying off debt the club owes, however there is likely to be more players leaving the club before the close of the transfer window tomorrow.
Moses made 69 appearances and scored 11 goals.
Meanwhile, Stern John has returned from his loan spell at Ipswich Town, which will be a welcome addition to Neil Warnock's already depleting squad.
