Sheffield Wednesday star Josh Windass is on the brink of signing a new deal with the club, leaving Hull City and Coventry City disappointed after being heavily linked with the forward. The Sheffield Star reported that positive discussions between Windass and Wednesday have paved the way for a new agreement, sidelining any potential move for the 30-year-old by their Championship rivals. Windass played a crucial role in Wednesday’s survival under manager Danny Röhl last season, scoring six vital goals to keep the club in the division. His impressive performances attracted interest from various clubs, including MLS sides and Birmingham City, but it seems he is set to extend his stay at Hillsborough. Windass’s potential new contract comes as a boost for Wednesday following Röhl’s commitment to the club, ending speculation about his future. The playmaker’s ability to deliver in key moments, such as his injury-time winner in the League One playoff final, has made him a sought-after player for teams aiming for promotion. Overall, Windass’s decision to stay at Sheffield Wednesday will be a significant blow to Hull City and Coventry City, who will now need to seek alternative attacking options for the upcoming season.
Coventry City, Birmingham City, and Hull City left devastated as their hopes of signing Josh Windass are crushed by a major setback.
