Pierce Charles, the promising 19-year-old goalkeeper for Sheffield Wednesday, may be heading out on loan this summer, though the final decision is yet to be made. Despite his impressive performances for Northern Ireland in the U19 European Championship, Charles is unlikely to see much playing time for his club this season, with James Beadle and Ben Hamer ahead of him in the pecking order. An injury to Hamer, however, has created an unexpected opportunity, and the club has brought George Shelvey in on trial. Sheffield Wednesday’s manager, Danny Röhl, is considering the best path forward for Charles, emphasizing the importance of his development and the possibility of a loan move.
