Throughout his storied career, the 76-year-old has seen just about everything there is to see in football, and despite managing <a href=\"https:\/\/eflanalysis.com\/tag\/sheffield-united\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sheffield United<\/a> in the past, he would be open to the job at Sheffield Wednesday. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"705\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/GettyImages-1991145843-1024x705.jpg\" alt=\"Neil Warnock ahead of Rangers FC v Aberdeen - Cinch Scottish Premiership\" class=\"wp-image-7356\" \/>Photo by Ian MacNicol\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>When asked if he\u2019d take over the vacancy if offered, he said (via: <a href=\"https:\/\/talksport.com\/football\/3426137\/neil-warnock-sheffield-wednesday-job-sheffield-united-efl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">talkSPORT<\/a>): \u201cWell, you\u2019ve got to say yes.
