Danny Röhl set for Dejphon Chansiri meetings after Sheffield Wednesday chairman returns

The Owls have signed two players this month so far, bringing in both James Beadle and Iké Ugbo on loan from Brighton & Hove Albion and Troyes respectively, however the Wednesday boss is eager to add more in his pursuit of Championship safety.

Wednesday are believed to have missed out on a couple of targets in the shape of Conor Coventry and Mika Biereth, both of whom have moved elsewhere this month, and heading into the last two weeks of the window it’s hoped that there will be some positive movement for the Owls on the transfer front.

With Chansiri back at Hillsborough for the game against Coventry City over the weekend it may have been seen as the club stepping up their pursuit of new arrivals, but Röhl insists that the situation is fine even when he’s not in Sheffield.

“For sure,” was Röhl’s response when asked if he’d be sitting down with the Owls chairman soon. “But we’re still in contact, it doesn’t matter if he’s here or not here – I think it makes no difference. But yeah, we’ll try – it’s like on the pitch, you always try as a team to do something.

“Hopefully we will get to the end all that we want, but the transfer market is not easy in January. It goes quickly in one direction and then in a second direction. I will try it with the club, and hopefully by the first of February we will have the result that we want."
