There has been a lot of ins and outs at Sheffield Wednesday since Dejphon Chansiri came on board, but what has happened to the plethora of names brought in during Carlos Carvalhal’s first campaign at Hillsborough?
The 2015/16 season was an exciting one for Wednesdayites as Carvalhal brought a renewed sense of positivity to the club along with a lot of new faces – some of which went on to have very good careers at Hillsborough, and others that certainly did not.
We took a little trip down memory lane to see what the 18 players signed in that first Chansiri/Carvalhal season are up to now, and it’ll come as no surprise that it’s all a bit of a mixed bag…
There have been retirements, returns and a fair few who are still playing – but only one remains at Wednesday who has been there ever since that ‘almost season’ a few years ago.
Take a look...
17. Joe Bennett
Signed in January 2016, Bennett but made just four appearances for the club. He signed for Wigan Athletic earlier this year after a lengthy spell at Cardiff City, but is yet to make his debut for the club. Photo: Steve Ellis
18. Aiden McGeady
The 35-year-old had a not-so-successful loan spell at Hillsborough in 2016, and has since gone on to play for Preston North End, Charlton Athletic and his current club, Sunderland. He's got two goals in nine games in League One this season - and is set to face his old club early next month. Photo: Steve Ellis
