DEAL TALK: An attacker for Sheffield Wednesday is wanted as talks continue.

Sheffield Wednesday could have to act fast if they want to guarantee Josh Windass’s stay at Hillsborough for the upcoming campaign.

The 30-year-old arrived at the perfect time, as his efforts and goals helped the Owls pull off the incredible escape this season. His return of eight goals and eight assists in 25 league games is definitely not to be taken lightly.

The Wednesday attacker’s skill set has been praised by manager Danny Röhl, and The Star recently revealed that negotiations were taking place to try and sign him to a new deal at S6.

As things stand, no agreement has been reached, thus he still has choices until the 2024–2025 season begins. This magazine has been informed that other Championship teams are interested in luring him away from South Yorkshire.
According to reports, Derby County, who was recently promoted, and teams like Stoke City, West Bromwich Albion, and Hull City—where his father, Dean, played—are thinking about pursuing the former Rangers player.

The highly sought-after attacking midfield player’s future is still unknown, but considering his impressive season finale, teams will be holding out for the chance to formally begin negotiations with him. Wednesday should be able to reach an agreement before then.

When Windass scored the second goal in a 2-0 victory over Sunderland on the last day to help the Owls stay up, he became the first player since Fernando Forestieri to score 40 goals for the team. Only Atdhe Nuhiu and Marcus Tudgay (both 50) have scored more goals in Wednesday colours this millennium.
