Sheffield Wednesday are desperate to keep Harry Amass at Hillsborough for the remainder of the season.

Manager Henrik Pedersen has said he is hoping Sheffield Wednesday will be able to “finalise something soon” in their quest to keep Manchester United loanee Harry Amass at Hillsborough for the rest of the season.

The left-back, who has been a standout performer for the Owls since arriving from Old Trafford back in September, is currently scheduled to play his final game for the club against QPR at Loftus Road on Sunday lunchtime.

It was reported at the time of his move to Hillsborough that his loan would run until January, but no specific date was given. Pedersen, though, confirmed after Monday night’s draw with Blackburn Rovers that the loan deal will expire after the trip to the capital.

Amass chalked up his 20th appearance for the Owls in New Year’s Day’s 3-0 defeat to Preston North End at Deepdale, and every Wednesday supporter is now hoping the trip to Loftus Road will not mark his final outing for the club.

Issuing an update on Wednesday’s hopes of keeping Amass at Hillsborough for the remainder of the campaign, Owls chief Pedersen has confirmed talks between all parties are still ongoing, but that he is hopeful Wednesday will get the outcome they are looking for.

"There is a dialogue between the clubs and the agent, so I really hope that we can finalise something soon," Pedersen told The Star. "Of course, we would love to keep him.

"He has done really, really well. He's 18-years-old, played so many games, which level he has played [at].

"Of course the young guy has a lot to learn, but how he has played for us, it has been great."
