Sheffield Wednesday are just days away from the summer transfer window opening and have already been linked with a number of players.

The Owls are expected to complete a free transfer for goalkeeper Ben Hamer, while former Southampton defender Yan Valery has already agreed personal terms on a move back to England.

It now looks like they are nearing another free agent, though this one will only have to make the three mile trip from Bramall Lane.

According to The Star journalist Alex Miller, Wednesday are in the ‘advanced stages’ of bringing Max Lowe to the club.

He wrote on X: “EXC: Understand Sheffield Wednesday are in the advanced stages of completing a deal to sign Sheffield United defender Max Lowe. Left-back, 27yo former Eng youth international.”

Max Lowe joined Sheffield United from Derby County in 2020, but managed only eight appearances in his first season in the Premier League.
