The summer saw Sheffield Wednesday undergo significant changes, welcoming 10 new players to the squad, including the notable signing of Ike Ugbo for £3 million. Despite the fresh faces, the focus has now shifted to the departure of existing players due to the sizable first-team roster.

Bailey Cadamarteri, a promising young forward, is poised for a loan move, with Wrexham reportedly leading the race for his signature. Meanwhile, Marvin Johnson has attracted interest from Derby County and Oxford United, raising speculation about his potential exit.

Mallik Wilks, who has struggled to find form during his time with the Owls, has sealed a season-long loan deal with Rotherham United. The move aims to rejuvenate his career alongside new teammates in a bid for a swift return to the Championship under manager Steve Evans.

As Wilks embarks on his temporary departure, it appears unlikely that he will secure a new contract with Sheffield Wednesday following his underwhelming performances. Despite potential success at Rotherham, a future at the Owls seems doubtful for the 25-year-old forward.

With the club progressing under Danny Rohl’s guidance and reinforcing their attacking options with quality signings such as Ugbo and Jamal Lowe, Sheffield Wednesday are already reaping the rewards on the pitch with a perfect start to the new season.
