Nathaniel Chalobah

Sheffield Wednesday appear set to end interest in forward target as complication now emerges

Sheffield Wednesday’s recent activities indicate that losing Jeremy Livolant isn’t a major setback for Danny Rohl’s squad, considering they’ve already signed Olaf Kobacki and Jamal Lowe. With a robust roster of wide players, the club arguably doesn’t need further reinforcements in that position.

Instead, priorities should shift toward acquiring a striker, a central midfielder, and a center-back, and they must act swiftly to secure these new signings before too many matches have been played. The potential return of Ike Ugbo is promising, but there’s been little discussion about reinforcing other areas of the pitch.

Rohl has expressed a desire for a new midfielder and defender, though he doesn’t seem to be in a rush. The coach must hope Nathaniel Chalobah and Barry Bannan remain fit, given the squad’s lack of depth, particularly since Chalobah only started seven games last season.

Sheffield Wednesday’s transfer activities are set to continue as manager Danny Röhl anticipates more additions to the squad, with one potentially arriving in the next couple of days. Despite already signing eight new players this summer, the club is far from finished as they aim to build a team capable of competing at the top end of the Championship table.

During the Owls’ pre-season training camp at St George’s Park, Röhl addressed the ongoing transfer efforts. While he refrained from discussing specific names linked to transfer reports, he hinted that a new signing could be completed in the next couple of days. “We are looking at some options in the market,” Röhl told The Star. “This position is not the easiest one, but I think in the next – not hours – but two days, we will do something. It depends a little bit on the process, the contracts, the medical check. We have always the performance tests, then only after this they can go into training. If they have all this then we can go forward but as always it is about timing. Sometimes it goes quicker, sometimes we need one day more. Then if we have something, we will announce it.”
