Sheffield Wednesday and Danny Rohl are in the midst of contract talks, following an impressive end to the 2023/24 season.
Sheffield Wednesday owner Dejphon Chansiri is understandably keen to hand Rohl, 35, a new contract in S6.
It comes after Rohl’s Sheffield Wednesday side achieved a 20th place finish in the Championship table, becoming the first-ever Championship side to beat the drop after going winless in their first 13 games of the season.
Chansiri and Rohl have held talks regarding a new deal for the latter, with Rohl’s current contract thought to expire in a year’s time.
And those talks are reportedly moving along steadily. Now, there’s more information on the matter.

Journalist Alex Miller has revealed on X that Chansiri, Rohl, and ‘representatives met for continuation of talks’ in London on Wednesday.
Miller adds that contract discussions are ‘high on the agenda’ and that the ‘outcome of the meeting sounds very encouraging’.
But Miller are urges Sheffield Wednesday fans to remain patient on the matter, adding that ‘there are some important details to be ironed out before any completion’.
Danny Rohl Sheffield Wednesday contract can kickstart one thing
With any contract renewal talks in football, there’s always a lot of matters and factors to consider, so it’s understandable that pen is yet to be put to paper.
But it remains that proceedings are moving along in a positive manner and Sheffield Wednesday fans may be expecting to hear news of a new deal for Rohl very soon.
And that would be a huge achievement by the club and Chansiri. Then, once Rohl’s future is finalised and secured, the club can properly move along with their transfer plans for this summer.
Sheffield Wednesday still have the futures of a lot of their players to finalise and then, of course, plenty of players to bring in.
Expect the Owls to utilise the free and loan markets once again this summer, with a new contract for Rohl likely to use up a lot of available resources.
Still, it looks set to be an exciting summer in S6, and it’ll need to be a strong one in the transfer market if Sheffield Wednesday are to avoid another repeat of the 2023/24 Championship campaign.
Players will enter the final month of their contracts in a week’s time and it’ll present the Owls, and indeed every other team in the Football League, with a chance to start intiial talks and whatnot.
