Sheffield Wednesday’s 2022–23 season was a rollercoaster of emotions, defined by stunning comebacks and bold decisions off the pitch. While their dramatic promotion through the play-offs will be long remembered—particularly Josh Windass’ 123rd-minute winner at Wembley—the seeds of success were sown months earlier. Darren Moore’s proactive transfer strategy, highlighted by a daring double swoop on rivals Rotherham United for Michael Ihiekwe and Michael Smith, set the tone for a campaign driven by grit and ambition. The controversial move not only shook the League One landscape but proved decisive in Wednesday’s return to the Championship.

Danny Röhl has praised Michael Ihiekwe for his impressive resurgence this season, describing his progress as something that brings a “smile in his heart.” After a tough spell out of the squad earlier in the campaign, Ihiekwe seized an opportunity following injuries to other players and has since played 14 consecutive 90-minute matches. His leadership was further recognized when he captained Sheffield Wednesday during their midweek draw with Blackburn Rovers. Ihiekwe’s performances have earned him national recognition, with the 32-year-old nominated for the EFL Championship Player of the Month award for March after scoring two crucial goals in recent matches. Röhl highlighted Ihiekwe’s growth, noting how he has adapted to the team’s style and continues to develop, regardless of age.
