Sheffield Wednesday will surely be drawing up their plans for the summer transfer window.
Sheffield Wednesday gave themselves a huge boost in their fight for survival last time out.
The Owls beat Blackburn Rovers 3-1 in what was an exciting and memorable clash at Ewood Park, with Josh Windass and Marvin Johnson both on the scoresheet.
The win was sealed after Rovers goalkeeper Aynsley Pears put the ball into his own net in the second half.
Danny Rohl now sees his side sitting in 21st place of the Championship table, with Birmingham City and Huddersfield Town currently joining Rotherham United in the bottom three.
Sheffield Wednesday looking ahead to the summer
The end of this season, whatever the outcome, will put into place a lot of things for Sheffield Wednesday.
Staying up now looks very achievable.
And staying up would surely mean Rohl staying on and a lot of the players being handed new deals, with Dejphon Chansiri surely eager to avoid another summer rebuild.
And the Owls owner has been urged by journalist Dom Howson to back Rohl in the summer transfer window.
It feels like another vital transfer window for the club and for Chansiri, who remains a widely disliked figure among Sheffield Wednesday fans.
Sheffield Wednesday should join the race for Josh Murphy
Transfer talk is buzzing around Oxford United’s winger Josh Murphy, the twin brother of Newcastle United’s Jacob Murphy. Despite not dominating League One, Josh has been in solid form lately, scoring four goals since March. With his contract expiring soon and interest from Championship clubs like Sunderland, West Brom, QPR, and Southampton, the competition for him is heating up.
Sheffield Wednesday, eyeing a smart move, could clinch Murphy’s signature this summer. While bigger clubs might offer him a backup role, a switch to Sheffield could guarantee him more game time. His experience and quality could be a significant boost for the team, especially alongside rising talents like Djeidi Gassama and Anthony Musaba.
Speaking of Musaba, he’s been impressive for Wednesday, but Murphy’s stats hint at an even more potent attacking threat. Despite his modest wage demands, Murphy could be a standout addition for the Owls, especially with the possibility of improved wages and an opportunity to shine in the Championship once again. With smart maneuvering, Sheffield Wednesday could make Murphy’s free transfer a game-changer.
