Sheffield Wednesday ‘pushing’ to sign striker they wanted in January, but there’s one issue
Sheffield Wednesday ‘pushing’ for Duncan McGuire
Wednesday could now look to another of their January targets in Duncan McGuire, with The Athletic reporting that they are now ‘pushing’ to sign him this summer.
The report claims that the Yorkshire outfit are one of a number of Championship clubs interested, as well as a couple from Italy too.
While McGuire was close to joining both Wednesday and Blackburn Rovers in January, it is believed that Orlando City really don’t want to sell him.
The 23-year-old scored 13 goals in 32 games last season, while he has continued his impressive form with six goals in 16 matches this time round.
The Owls need to push harder
McGuire could still be a very good signing for Wednesday, and it became very clear that the forward wanted to move to the Championship during the January saga.
However, they will face stiff competition his signature and will have to accept making sacrifices if they are to win the race.
That feels like the situation with every goalscorer at the minute though, and Wednesday aren’t going to land anyone suitable if they are afraid to spend money.
Ugbo, Biereth and McGuire are all very good options for the Owls, but what they don’t want is their hesitation to lead them to ending up with someone like Dwight Gayle on a free transfer.
