The Owls have had a busy window so far, bringing in Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, Chey Dunkley, Izzy Brown, Elias Kachunga, Josh Windsass and Callum Paterson as well as youngster, Korede Adedoyin, and Garry Monk is known to still be on the lookout for more fresh faces.
With the Championship season underway, Wednesday have picked up five points so far and reduced their points deficit to -7, but their hunt for new attackers is ongoing with the likes of Kenneth Zohore and Andre Green said to be on their list of potential targets.

Hide AdIt was confirmed previously that the transfer window in England will come to a close at 11pm this evening, although in actuality it is more of an international deadline because of the extended window for domestic clubs.
So what tonight’s 11pm deadline means is that the Owls, and other clubs across England, can no longer bring in any players from clubs outside the country, although they still have plenty of time left to bring in new players from the Premier League and English Football League.
Monk, who has been largely focused on the British market anyway, will then have until October 16th to make further additions from other teams locally, and even longer if they want to target free agents – such as Andre Green – who can sign at any point.
Your team from The Star will keep an eye out for any potential incomings today, and will be heading to Hillsborough later this afternoon, as tonight’s 11pm international deadline closes in.
