Pierce Charles, a 19-year-old Northern Ireland international, has sustained an injury, putting Sheffield Wednesday in a difficult situation as he was their only senior goalkeeper. Due to a transfer embargo, the club has sought permission from the EFL to secure an emergency loan for a temporary goalkeeper. It has been reported that Charles might be considering a move away from Hillsborough, attributed to players not receiving their salaries on time, but the club is resolute in their effort to retain him. His contract is valid until June 2027, and Transfermarkt has estimated his market value at €300k. Several clubs, such as West Ham United and Rangers, are reportedly interested in the goalkeeper.
