Luke Varney’s time at Sheffield Wednesday may have been defined by loan spells, but his connection to the club ran far deeper. Across three stints, he became a fan favourite at Hillsborough, contributing 11 goals in 43 appearances. Yet, his legacy is bittersweet—forever linked to the Owls’ heartbreaking relegation in 2009/10. Despite his temporary status, Varney felt every bit a Wednesday player, a bond made clear when he broke down after their final-day draw with Crystal Palace sealed their fate. Years later, he still carries the weight of that moment, proving his time in blue and white was anything but fleeting.

Now released, Armstrong joins a list of players departing Hillsborough this summer, while fellow ex-Rangers forward Josh Windass has secured a contract extension after an impressive season, continuing his long-standing role as a key figure at the club.

Barry Bannan’s future at Sheffield Wednesday hangs in the balance, with his contract set to expire this summer and no clear decision yet on a renewal.

With manager Danny Rohl reportedly set to depart, any decisions regarding Bannan’s future may be delayed further.

Sheffield Wednesday’s Hidden Core: The 16 Players Staying Next Season – and the Clock Ticking on Their Contracts

May 10, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Sheffield Wednesday face a summer of significant change with just 16 first-team players contracted for the upcoming season, and six of them aged 21 or younger. The club is set for another major rebuilding job, with at least 16 players seeing their contracts expire, including Ryo Hatsuse, whose deal ends in June. The Owls currently lack the depth to field a full matchday squad without relying on their youth system, highlighting the urgent need for fresh signings.

Among the players confirmed for next season, Pierce Charles has committed to a long-term deal, while Di’Shon Bernard will remain until 2027. Veteran defender Dominic Iorfa has one year left, aiming to hit 200 club appearances. Max Lowe, a key figure in the squad, signed a two-year contract, and Yan Valery, who impressed in his first season, is contracted for three more years.

As the squad takes shape for the 2025/26 campaign, Sheffield Wednesday’s management, whether under Danny Röhl or a new head coach, will face a busy period of squad building and potential contract extensions.

While discussions with the club have reportedly been ongoing since November, Windass hinted that clarity may soon arrive — perhaps even in a forthcoming documentary chronicling his recent journey. “I’m sure all will be revealed on there,” he added with a grin.

Sheffield Wednesday prepare to welcome relegation-threatened Oxford United to Hillsborough this afternoon, aiming to claim their first home win since New Year’s Day. While the Owls have steadied their season and face no immediate danger, the same cannot be said for Oxford, who are fighting to avoid the drop after a tough campaign on the road.

All eyes will be on the midfield battle, where former Wednesday favourite Will Vaulks is expected to play a key role for the visitors. Now a driving force under new Oxford boss Gary Rowett, Vaulks brings both experience and emotion into the clash—qualities that Owls manager Danny Röhl is keenly aware of. Yet, Röhl insists the focus remains on his own team’s performance: “We play at home, and I want us to control the game, dictate the rhythm, and show our quality. If we do the basics right, we have what it takes to win.”
