Sheffield Wednesday have wasted little time trying to recruit players following their EFL embargoes being lifted.
The EFL put Sheffield Wednesday under multiple embargoes this summer, which has stopped them from adding to their slim squad.
However, it emerged going into the weekend thatthe Owls’ embargoes will be lifted now they are able to pay off debts via money received from the Premier League.
A fee restriction on transfers is set to remain in place, but official confirmation of the embargoes being lifted was forthcoming on Friday.

Sheffield Wednesday want second Manchester United player after Harry Amass
It was reported on August 8 that Sheffield Wednesday want to sign Harry Amass on loan from the Red Devils for the 2025/26 season.
Amass is a promising academy prospect who already has first-team experience, featuring on five occasions in the Premier League last term.
However, the left-back could be joined at Hillsborough this summer by one of his teammates.
Joe Crann has now reported via X/Twitter that Toby Collyer is a target for the Yorkshire club as well.
As reported by @mcgrathmike, understand that #SWFC are looking to try and get a loan deal done for Manchester United’s Harry Amass. But he’s not the only Red Devil they’re after…
They’re also interested in trying to get Toby Collyer on loan, too. https://t.co/jizKABXxfP 🦉⚽️
