Sheffield Wednesday, Huddersfield Town and Reading offers for Kyreece Lisbie 'accepted' in fresh development

Sheffield Wednesday, Huddersfield Town and Reading offers for Kyreece Lisbie 'accepted' by Colchester United

Sheffield Wednesday, Huddersfield Town and Reading have reportedly had bids for Colchester United winger Kyreece Lisbie accepted.

The 22-year-old was among the standout performers in League Two last season, adapting well to the demands of senior football after leaving Brentford’s academy.

He delivered an 11-goal haul and registered six assists, putting himself on the radar of clubs higher in the pyramid.

Kyreece Lisbie bids ‘accepted’

Speculation regarding the wideman’s future has been rife and according to the Reading Chronicle, Colchester have accepted bids from Wednesday, Huddersfield and Reading.

The latter have supposedly met the terms offered by the Owls and the Terriers and it now appears as if player preference could prove decisive.

Lisbie is reportedly set to decide on his next challenge this week, with some undeniably exciting options on the table for him.

The development comes after Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony indicated Lisbie would not be heading to Hillsborough via social media.

Lisbie is the twin brother of Posh forward Kyrell, but MacAnthony also poured cold water on talk of the brothers being reunited at the Weston Homes Stadium.

Big summers ahead for Sheffield Wednesday and Huddersfield Town

Wednesday and Huddersfield both have big summers ahead after bitterly disappointing 2025/26 campaigns. The former finished rock-bottom of the Championship table and the latter missed out on the League One play-offs.

Both will be fancied for promotion tilts next term, but must make sure they box clever in the transfer market.

Wednesday made their first signing of the summer on Friday (June 19), paying an undisclosed fee to Swansea Citt for the services of experienced centre-back Ricardo Santos.

Santos said: “The club struggled last year and had its problems, but all of that is over now – as you can see by how many season tickets we’ve sold. Joining at this time, there is no better feeling for me.”
