Sheffield Wednesday are continuing to endure frequent player exits amid owner Dejphon Chansiri\u2019s consistent failure to pay staff and player wages on time.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Owls have witnessed one of last season\u2019s star men, Josh Windass, join Wrexham, while striker Michael Smith signed for Championship rivals Preston<\/a>.<\/p>\n Danny Rohl\u2019s men appear set for a second-tier relegation battle, as the Sheffield Wednesday squad continues to thin, with their opening league game just under two weeks away.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the North Stand at Hillsborough could be shut<\/a> at the start of next season due to safety concerns, adding to supporters\u2019 frustrations.<\/p>\n Amid the South Yorkshire club\u2019s financial struggles, Callum Paterson attracted interest from MK Dons<\/a> and Oxford United.<\/p>\n The versatile striker\u2019s contract at Hillsborough had expired, although he was still training with Rohl\u2019s men in pre-season. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES<\/p>\n However, the 30-year-old has joined League Two side MK Dons<\/a> and has penned an emotional exit message to Sheffield Wednesday supporters.<\/p>\n Paterson took to Instagram on Monday, 28 July, as he wrote: \u201cSadly, my time at SWFC has come to an end. <\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve loved every second of playing for this massive club and made so many memories that I\u2019ll never forget, especially in the promotion season.<\/p>\n \u201c186 times I was privileged enough to wear the badge, and it was always an honour to pull on that shirt whenever I got the opportunity.<\/p>\n \u201cI would just like to thank all of the fans for making me feel at home in Sheffield for the last five seasons. Thank you to all of the backroom staff, the physios, the coaching staff, and everyone else in between.<\/p>\n \u201cYou have all been amazing with me, and I\u2019ll forever appreciate it. I\u2019ve made some amazing friends for life at the club and in the city itself. Sheffield will always hold a special part in my life, with my daughter being born here.<\/p>\n \u201cI wish everyone at SWFC all the best for the upcoming season and for the future beyond that. Excited to start a new chapter. <\/p>\n \u201cWAWAW Pato.\u201d<\/p>\n Paterson\u2019s former Sheffield Wednesday teammate Jamal Lowe<\/a> commented: \u201cMy brother!\u201d alongside a crying face emoji.<\/p>\n Paterson can help fire MK Dons to promotion<\/strong><\/p>\n Football Insider verdict<\/strong><\/p>\n Sheffield Wednesday will boast a significantly weaker attack next season, thanks to the departures of Windass<\/a>, Smith, and Paterson.<\/p>\n Paterson can excel in League Two<\/p>\n The MK Dons new boy notched six goals and two assists in the Championship<\/a> last season, proving that he can still produce the goods in the second tier.<\/p>\n Therefore, he should be able to thrive in League Two and fire Paul Warne\u2019s men to promotion back to League One for the first time since they suffered relegation from the third tier in 2023.<\/p>\n![\"Sheffield](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Danny-Rohl-1024x676.jpg\")
