There is hope that it can be wrapped up in time to beat the 11pm deadline this evening, with the Owls’ League One rivals eager to get another deal over the line in time for their trip to Rotherham United early next month.

Time is ticking for the clubs to reach an agreement and then for the player to agree personal terms, but Accy are seemingly confident that they can get something wrapped up before it’s too late.

Adedoyin, who joined the Owls as a free agent from Everton back in 2020, has made three appearances for Wednesday this season, scoring his only senior goal in the Papa John’s Trophy win over Harrogate Town.

Accrington have brought in Jay Rich-Baghuelou, Rosier Longelo and Marcel Lewis this month, with Adedoyin likely to be their final deal of the window before it does slam shut this evening.
