One of Sheffield Wednesday’s first-team players has suffered an injury, and a dependable journalist has revealed that he will miss some time with the Championship.
What is Sheffield Wednesday’s most recent injury update?
Barry Bannan and Josh Windass both missed last weekend’s 0-0 draw against Huddersfield Town in South Yorkshire, and Momo Diaby—who has yet to register to compete—was seen without his protective boot on but won’t be playing anytime soon (The Star).
Juan Delgado was another player that was noticeably absent from the matchday squad during Saturday’s draw at Hillsborough. Caretaker manager Neil Thompson stated that this was because the star wasn’t risked because he was suffering from a knock.
The right-winger for the Owls signed a contract this summer to replace Pacos Ferreira, but in his 12 games thus far, he has proven to be an asset. Prior to the former manager’s dismissal, Xisco Munoz regularly included him in the starting lineup, and the team had won 0 games in the second division this season (Transfermarkt .
The 30-year-old Chilean international was called up to play for his country in their next matches against Peru and Venezuela, but according to a statement from the Chilean FA, he had to leave the camp and head back to England.
Update on Juan Delgado’s injury
Juan Delgado, the attacker for Sheffield Wednesday, has already undergone a hip treatment, according to Joe Crann of The Star, who provided an update on his condition on X. However, he also acknowledged that the duration of his absence is unknown, implying that it might take some time.
“Some unexpected news from over in Chile,” he wrote. Following his absence from the #SWFC match against Huddersfield Town, it has been revealed that Juan Delgado has had hip surgery. I have no idea how long he will need to heal.”
Juan Delgado is a talented player.
Journalist Josh Bunting claims that Delgado’s quick speed has made him one of the few Sheffield Wednesday players who have truly “stood out” thus far this season. As a result, Thompson and the incoming manager will be devastated to learn that Delgado may be sidelined for some time.
Since the beginning of his career, the Santiago native has 61 final third involvements (39 goals and 22 assists), including one goal for the blue and white stripes. Although his final product isn’t always there, he is a consistent threat.
Dejphon Chansiri, who earns £3k per week (Sheffield Wednesday salaries), has so far this season recorded 25 crosses and 10 shots, which are both tied for the second-highest total among the squad (FBRef – Sheffield Wednesday statistics). The former is shared with Callum Paterson, while the latter is shared with Lee Gregory.
The sooner Delgado returns, the better. He is a versatile player who has been used in an amazing nine different places over the grass from the beginning of his career, including all over the front line, three midfield roles and two defensive duties.
