End of an Era as Windass Turns Down Owls Extension
Sheffield Wednesday’s Josh Windass is poised to leave the club on a free transfer this summer after declining the final contract proposal from the team, according to insider sources. The forward’s current contract is due to expire at the end of June, and despite efforts to secure his stay at Hillsborough, no agreement has been reached.
Championship Rivals Eye Windass for Attacking Reinforcement
Coventry City and Hull City have emerged as frontrunners in the pursuit of the 30-year-old attacker, with both clubs expressing interest in bolstering their offensive line-up. The two teams are reportedly preparing to present offers to Windass in the upcoming weeks, hoping to add his experience and versatility to their squads.
Windass’ Impactful Stint at Hillsborough
Since his move from Wigan Athletic to Sheffield Wednesday in 2020, Windass has been a key player, contributing significantly to the team’s efforts to maintain their Championship status. With a record of 40 goals and 17 assists in 135 appearances for the Owls, his departure will leave a notable gap in the team’s attacking force.
Extensive Championship Experience Makes Windass a Hot Commodity
Born in Hull, Windass has amassed 129 appearances in the second tier of English football, alongside a two-year spell with Scottish heavyweights Rangers. This impressive track record has made him an attractive target for Championship sides looking to strengthen their teams ahead of the new season.
Sheffield Wednesday’s Attempts to Retain Windass Unsuccessful
Despite Sheffield Wednesday’s attempts to extend his tenure at the club, Windass has chosen to seek pastures new, sparking interest from Coventry and Hull. Both Championship contenders, who narrowly missed out on play-off spots last season, are expected to make their move for Windass once his current deal concludes.
Transfer Market Heats Up for Sheffield Wednesday
As the transfer saga around Windass unfolds, Sheffield Wednesday is also reportedly joining the race to sign a star player from Rotherham, signaling an active transfer period for the club.
