One of those you may have spotted on a video shared by the club this week was young right back, Josh Dawodu, who is a highly-rated defender in the club’s youth academy.

Dawodu could be an interesting option at right back between now and the end of the season should Moore seek to inject some youth into the position.
Moore has a reputation for not being afraid to use young players when required, and will be keeping a close eye on the youth setup at Middlewood Road as he seeks to continue the pathway through the ranks up to the senior team.
It remains to be seen exactly when Dawodu’s contract at Wednesday expires, but – like so many others – there’s a good likelihood that he could be up at the end of the season.
