Ben Heneghan will return to Sheffield Wednesday for preseason
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
The 29-year-old centre back is one of a number of players that will be leaving the Owls when their contracts expire at the end of this month, however he has revealed that his time at the club won’t be ending quite as soon as the others who are on their way.
Heneghan suffered a serious injury whilst playing for Wednesday back in October, sustaining knee damage that required surgery and unfortunately ruled him out for the remainder of the campaign.

Hide AdHaving got back out on the grass before the play-off final, the defender is edging closer to the end of his rehabilitation programme - and has explained that he’ll be back at the club until he’s ‘signed off’.
Taking to Twitter on Saturday morning, the towering defender said, “Tough one to take considering the situation, but I’ll be back around the club during preseason until I’m signed off. So it’s not a goodbye just yet. The work continues! Feeling good - thanks for the messages.”
Heneghan’s departure was probably the biggest shock of all the confirmed exits this summer, with many thinking that he had at least another year on his contract at Hillsborough.
