The Equadorian international midfield player has joined for an undisclosed fee and signed a three and a half year contract.
The move will be a great relief to supporters who are in doubt as to the talents of the 21 year old.
Valencia himself said: "I am really happy this has been sorted. I have always wanted to play in England and now that Wigan have given me the chance, I am happy to repay them by staying here.
"The Premier League is a fantastic place to play and I have really enjoyed working with Steve Bruce, you can see how the team is motivated now and I think he will be successful here in the seasons to come.
"I also thank the Wigan fans who often sing my name, which makes me really happy to be here!"
