Lowe has managed eight goals in 40 appearances since joining Bournemouth from Swansea City in 2021.

He spent time on loan at Queens Park Rangers last season, notching three times across his 20 outings.

Although not prolific, the 29-year-old boasts pace and intelligent movement as well as vast experience accumulated across spells with the likes of Portsmouth and Wigan Athletic.

He cut his teeth in non-league football, turning out for the likes of St Albans City and Hampton & Richmond Borough before making his breakthrough in the professional game.

If a deal with the Owls is struck, he could become the second forward to join Wednesday this summer following the loan signing of Ashley Fletcher.
