Three players Sheffield Wednesday could sign after Danny Rohl’s transfer hint teased

The Owls still appear to be a bit light in attack as well as midfield, which could see players targeted in those positions as a result.

Sheffield Wednesday are currently looking to bolster their striker options, with Ike Ugbo a priority to bring to Hillsborough, although Sory Kaba remains a solid second choice for Rohl.

Rohl has already added Svante Ingelsson and Nathaniel Chalobah alongside him to improve his options in the center of the park, however more signings could still be made in this area.

The Sheffield Wednesday boss has made it clear that the Owls could enter the loan market this summer with “players from Premier League clubs” in mind.

With these recent comments, here’s who Rohl might be tempted to bring to the S6 this summer.

Tom Cannon

Leicester City striker Tom Cannon would be a brilliant signing with his ability to score goals at Championship level.

He was given very few chances to make a significant impact for Leicester City last season, receiving just three league starts, yet managed to provide a goal contribution every 141 minutes.

If Cannon is trusted to lead the line, he can provide a guarantee of goals, as he was during his loan spell at Preston North End, where he scored eight goals in 20 games, leading to former West Ham striker Dean Ashton to label the 21-year-old as “incredible”, according to Lancs Live.

Ben Doak

Sheffield Wednesday could be targeting a move for Liverpool winger Ben Doak.

Although he has been given a taste of first-team football in Merseyside, notably making six appearances in the Premier League and Europa League, Liverpool are likely to want to take the hot prospect on loan.

Although he is yet to get a goal in senior football, he has shown his ability on the right wing to change a game at youth level, notably notching up eight goal contributions in as many games in the Uefa Youth League.

Cesare Casadei

Like Cannon, Italian midfielder Cesare Casadei also spent time at Leicester City during their 2023/24 Championship-winning campaign.

The 21-year-old failed to establish a starting place for the Foxes, however, making 22 appearances before being recalled to parent club Chelsea.

Casadei could provide additional defensive insurance in Sheffield Wednesday’s midfield, with him able to alternate and fight for a place with new signing Chalobah.

The youngster was also given a taste of Premier League football with Chelsea, with 11 substitute appearances seeing him used on the pitch, from coming into midfield to playing on the wing.
