Former Sheffield Wednesday man Saido Berahino has found a new club.
Sheffield Wednesday endured a tough two-year spell in League One, bringing in and letting go of many players.
Times are looking brighter now though, under manager Danny Rohl, and following whatโs been a very promising summer transfer window.
Sheffield Wednesday signed Ike Ugbo earlier this month, with the former Owls loan man becoming the clubโs 10th signing of the summer.
And recent reports have revealed that Sheffield Wednesday are set to sign Shea Charles on loan from Southampton.
More could follow, with the Owls wanting to sign a striker before August 30th.
Brightonโs Mark OโMahony has been linked with a temporary move to Hillsborough, with Sheffield Wednesday talking to multiple striker targets right now.
Rohl will hope to avoid the kind of player turnover that we saw under Darren Moore in League One.
One player who came and left during Mooreโs tenure was Saido Berahino, who linked up with his former West Brom boss in S6.

Berahino, 31, was with Sheffield Wednesday for the 2021/22 season, where he scored nine goals in 36 total appearances.
Berahino said Moore tempted him into joining the Owls, and in an interview this year, Berahino didnโt rule out a possible return to Sheffield Wednesday.
The attacker left Cypriot club AEL Limassol earlier this summer, and heโs now signed for Indian I-League outfit Rajasthan United FC.
The club posted the news on X on Friday:
No chance of EFL return for former Sheffield Wednesday man Saido Berahino
Berahino is one of many players who seems to have missed his potential.
He looked like the next best thing at one point but fell off. Even when he was at Wednesday, he showed signs of a good player who couldโve potentially got back to the top, but he wasnโt handed a new deal.
Since, Berahino has become something of a journeyman, playing in Belgium and Cyprus, and now India.
Itโs another surprise move for Berahino, though heโll certainly add a huge degree of quality to his new club, and at 31 years old, he could yet become a very prolific player with his new club.
But there seems to be very little chance of Berahino ever returning to the Football League now, with the Indian I-League still very developing league.
As for Sheffield Wednesday and Rohl, theyโll be focused on the upcoming Leeds United game on Friday night.
Kick off is at 8pm and the game will be shown live on Sky Sports.
