Sheffield Wednesday cult hero Atdhe Nuhiu pictured at Wembley ahead of his former club's League One play-off final against Barnsley FC

Sheffield Wednesday cult hero Atdhe Nuhiu has been pictured at Wembley Stadium ahead of his former club’s League One play-off final showdown with Barnsley.

The forward spent seven years at Hillsborough, and was part of the Owls squad that reached the Championship play-off final in 2016. He now plies his trade in Austria with SC Rheindorf Altach, but has made the journey to London to watch his former club battle for a place in the second tier.

Sheffield Wednesday have tweeted a picture of the 33-year-old, underneath a caption reading ‘Atdhe is in the building’. The former fan favourite will be on commentary duty, joining the club’s regular host Rob O’Neill on the airwaves.

Nuhiu made a total of 277 appearances for the Owls, scoring 50 goals. He left in 2020, joining APOEL in Cyprus before signing for his current club, SC Rheindorf Altach.
