Following a dramatic turnaround in fortunes coinciding with the appointment of manager Danny Rohl, there is considerable optimism for Sheffield Wednesday ahead of the upcoming season. Once seemingly doomed, the Owls managed a remarkable escape by going unbeaten in their final eight games and winning their last three, finishing 20th in the Championship. A pivotal win on the final day ensured their survival by just three points. With Rohl extending his tenure last week by signing a three-year contract, there is plenty for Owls fans to be excited about. The club has transitioned from facing potential relegation to League One to becoming an ambitious project under Rohl’s leadership.

Recently, they have been linked with young and promising striker Mika Biereth from Arsenal, further showcasing their ambition. Biereth, valued at £6 million by Transfermarkt, spent the second half of the season on loan with Sturm Graz, impressing with nine goals and four assists in 22 appearances. His performance has garnered significant attention, but Sheffield Wednesday now faces a challenging task in securing his services. According to The Standard, Sturm Graz wants to sign Biereth permanently and will hold talks this week.
