Danny Rohl has returned to Sheffield Wednesday after an extended stint away.
The Owls are in crisis with three embargoes placed on them going into the 2025/26 season.
Their issues have not been helped by Danny Rohl being linked with a plethora of clubs over the last several months and deciding not to return for the beginning of the 2025 pre-season.
However, EFL Analysis revealed earlier this week that at least three interested parties are still looking at a takeover of Sheffield Wednesday.
Amid a potential takeover gathering some steam, Rohl has decided he will return to the club.
However, the German returning with pre-season already underway has led to some mixed reactions, and a former player has now had his say.

Rohl has been praised by Alan Biggs for dealing with owner Dejphon Chansiri.
But not all the reaction towards the manager over the last week has been positive.
Sheffield Wednesday fans reacted to Rohl returning this week, and the Owls fanbase is pretty split.
Now, ex-player Jon Newsome has shared his feelings on the matter, choosing to view it as a positive but also understanding why some fans aren’t happy.
He told BBC Radio Sheffield: “There has been so much negativity about Sheffield Wednesday, it’s nice to have a little bit of something positive.
“On the other side, I don’t think he’s covered himself in any glory by how he’s gone about things and I think some Wednesday fans will find it a bitter pill to swallow.”

The reaction of fans has been mixed, while EFL Analysis has gained an insight into how Sheffield Wednesday players feel about Rohl after his comeback.
And some of the current Owls stars feel let down by the former Bayern Munich coach after he stayed away amid the financial crisis.
They are also thought to be unhappy that Rohl has not been present for the start of pre-season training.
It’s understood that some have even expressed their concern about the situation to the club’s board.
