Sheffield Wednesday planning to 'revisit' Leeds United deal in summer transfer window

The tricky winger joined the Owls on the final day of the winter window, sealing a loan switch despite a permanent move initially appearing to be on the cards.

He has taken to life in South Yorkshire like a duck to water, becoming a key part of Danny Rohl’s side. The Colombia international delivered another impressive display at the weekend, wreaking havoc in Wednesday’s 2-1 win over Bristol City.

According to The Star, the possibility of agreeing a permanent move is something Wednesday would like to revisit in the summer. However, the likelihood of a deal being struck will most likely be determined by the club’s fate in the Championship relegation battle.

Poveda is out of contract at Elland Road in the summer and is likely to attract interest if the Whites do indeed opt against tabling a fresh contract offer. Birmingham City were also linked with Poveda in January but it was Wednesday who got a deal over the line.

Speaking after the win over Bristol City, Rohl admitted survival would allow the club to make “very good arguments” to retain certain players.

He said: "If we do our homework and achieve our goals then we have some very good arguments to keep some players here. They trust us and we have given them some great self-confidence. If you come from some clubs where you didn't play then your self-confidence is not so high. We have brought that back. We will see."
