Sheffield Wednesday: Sam Hutchinson and Darren Moore talk transfers, injuries, Nathaniel Mendez-Laing and much more

Sam Hutchinson was on the scoresheet for Sheffield Wednesday.

It’s been a busy week at Hillsborough, with the Owls managing to get their first signing through the door as they snapped up Jordan Storey on loan from Preston North End, while the news also broke of Nathaniel Mendez-Laing’s short-term contract and then of him subsequently penning a new deal at the club.

DM on Lewis Gibson

It’s 50/50 - he’s just got back training, he’s building up his fitness. We’re still in talks with Everton, but nothing has been decided. He’s back on the grass, but he’s just building up.

By all accounts he’s doing ok.

DM on Bannan and other injuries

He’s fine after his knock, really good.

Kamberi is quite close, but Iorfa, Dunkley, Shodipo aren’t ready yet. Kamberi probably won’t be there this week, but maybe next week.
