Regarding his future at Sheffield Wednesday, Danny Rohl has given a one-word statement.
Danny Rohl’s team, Sheffield Wednesday, looks certain to stay in the Championship following an incredible 3-0 victory over West Brom.
With goals from Antony Musaba, Ike Ugbo, and Josh Windass, the Owls moved up to 20th place, three points above the relegation zone.
Wednesday now needs just one point on the final day of competition to avoid being relegated for another season.
They were seven points behind when Rohl joined the team in October, but he has since worked wonders to turn around a struggling group.
The German coach has drawn interest from Sunderland, but Sheffield Wednesday fans are now adamant that he should remain at Hillsborough for the duration of the summer.
Dejphon Chansiri has been pressuring Rohl to sign new terms for his contract in an effort to keep him around, but like most of the team, his future is still uncertain.
Danny Rohl addresses his future
The 34-year-old was asked about his future following yesterday’s victory, and he gave a straight forward one-word answer.
When asked if he had spoken to Chansiri about his future by journalist Alan Biggs, Rohl just said ‘no’.
If Sheffield Wednesday departs, what will happen to him?
Like the players, the club probably won’t start contract negotiations until after the league’s ruling is made sure to happen the following weekend.
Until he finds out if he will be managing in the Championship, Rohl might not make up his mind about staying in Yorkshire.
That shouldn’t, however, interfere with Chansiri’s plans. No matter where they are in the football hierarchy, the Thai owner ought to be attempting to convince Rohl to stay.
If they lose him, Wednesday will undoubtedly be in serious trouble again the following season. However, if Rohl is given the entire preseason and summer transfer window to bolster his team, Wednesday may very well contend for a postseason spot.
If the season had begun when he was appointed, the Owls would have finished eleventh in the Championship, nine points out of sixth place and thirteen points ahead of the bottom three.
If Rohl leaves, Wednesday may just have to fight for survival in the relegation zone. Rohl believes that he is the only manager who can help Wednesday realise its full potential.
If they are forced to find a new head coach, it will feel like all for nothing, even though it could be the ideal conclusion to a wild season for Wednesday.
