He enjoyed two separate spells with Wednesday between 2015 and 2017, racking up 33 appearances in all competitions. The 28-year-old, signed by then boss Carlos Carvalhal, helped the Owls reach back-to-back Championship play-offs.

Sasso left Hillsborough after Wednesday's heartbreaking play-off semi-final defeat to Huddersfield Town.
