Sheffield Wednesday fans have really taken a liking to manager Danny Rohl. This time last year, things were not looking so good for the team under Xisco Munoz. They started the season with 11 winless games, leading to Munoz being replaced. Danny Rohl came in and managed to secure Championship safety by the end of the season. The fans were thrilled when Rohl signed a new three-year deal. The summer transfer window has been positive for the team, with the recent signing of Ike Ugbo for £3 million.
Looking ahead to the 2024/25 Championship season, there is a concern looming for Sheffield Wednesday. Despite Rohl signing a new deal and showing commitment to the team, there has been interest from other clubs. Sunderland and Hull City were previously linked with Rohl, and journalist George Elek predicts that he could be the first manager to be poached in the Championship this season. His impressive performance and growing profile could attract Premier League teams.
While everyone seems settled at the moment, there is always a possibility of Rohl being lured away. His compensation fee was lowered when he signed the new deal, making it easier for other clubs to approach him. Chansiri and the fans will have to rely on Rohl’s contentment and hope that he stays to continue his work at Hillsborough. However, if a club decides to pay him out, it could create a major problem for Sheffield Wednesday.
It is clear that Rohl’s success has not gone unnoticed, and the team will need to be prepared for any potential offers that may come their way. Despite the concerns, the fans remain hopeful that Rohl will stay and lead Sheffield Wednesday to further success in the upcoming season.
