Sheffield Wednesday are set to witness further player exits this summer amid the continued financial chaos overseen by Dejphon Chansiri.<\/strong><\/p>\n After being told that their wages will likely be paid late for a third consecutive month, Sheffield Wednesday players could boycott their Championship opener<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Owls are set to take on Leicester City at the King Power Stadium on 10 August, but the squad\u2019s discontent continues to rise. <\/p>\n Thanks to Chansiri\u2019s severe financial mismanagement, former boss Danny Rohl has left Hillsborough<\/a> and has been replaced by his ex-assistant Henrik Pedersen.<\/p>\n Alongside Rohl\u2019s departure, Sheffield Wednesday have also seen Josh Windass leave<\/a>, while former colleagues Djeidi Gassama and Michael Smith joined Rangers and Preston, respectively.<\/p>\n But Barry Bannan\u2019s potential exit would be a particularly painful one, as he has been a top servant for the South Yorkshire side since 2015.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES<\/p>\n According to the Sheffield Star<\/a> [31 July], Bannan doesn\u2019t want to leave Hillsborough, but has attracted interest from Championship rivals Middlesbrough and Millwall.<\/p>\n Courtesy of Chansiri\u2019s failing ownership, the 35-year-old may not be possible, while both Boro and Millwall boast significantly greater financial stability than Sheffield Wednesday.<\/p>\n Bannan bombshell hands Pedersen further blow at Sheffield Wednesday<\/strong><\/p>\n Football Insider verdict<\/strong><\/p>\n Even if Pedersen replaced Rohl<\/a> in ordinary circumstances, the German would present himself as a tough act to follow in South Yorkshire.<\/p>\n Rohl is held in high regard by the Owls faithful thanks to the Championship<\/a> survival exploits he oversaw in 2023\/24, before guiding Wednesday to a comfortable midtable spot last term.<\/p>\n Pedersen is inheriting the 36-year-old\u2019s former seat in the Hillsborough dugout in extremely trying circumstances, which could even see his players rightfully refuse to fulfill their second-tier fixtures.<\/p>\n Bannan has been a class act for Sheffield Wednesday<\/p>\n Amid such a tough backdrop, the Dane would heavily benefit from the services of Bannan, who has stuck by Sheffield Wednesday<\/a> through thick and thin for a decade.<\/p>\n Losing the Scot to either Millwall or Middlesbrough heaps further pressure on Pedersen, who is all but certain to face a gruelling relegation battle in South Yorkshire.<\/p>\n![\"Sheffield](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Dejphon-Chansiri-Sheffield-Wednesday-1024x576.png\")
