Sheffield Wednesday are eyeing Davis Keillor-Dunn, but Plymouth Argyle and Barnsley should jump the gun to secure his signature. The 28-year-old forward has been linked with a move to Hillsborough, but Wrexham's stacked forward line may limit his chances. Keillor-Dunn has played just 88 minutes of football in the second half of last season's campaign, and with more quality set to arrive at the Stok Cae Ras, his role may be decreased further.
What happened?
Sheffield Wednesday expressed interest in Davis Keillor-Dunn this summer, but the move has died down significantly. The Owls have still needed a starting striker this summer, but a move for Mason Burstow looks more likely now. Burstow, like Keillor-Dunn, can play all across the frontline and behind the striker, too, so perhaps the 22-year-old's imminent arrival could definitively spell the end of their pursuit of the former Barnsley man.
Why it matters for Sheffield Wednesday
Sheffield Wednesday have been incredibly ambitious in their first summer transfer window under the Arise ownership, as they look to not only rebuild a squad ahead of their League One return, but also create one that could challenge near the top immediately. With Keillor-Dunn's experience and goal-scoring record, he could be the perfect addition to the Owls' attacking options.
What comes next?
Plymouth Argyle and Barnsley should be trying to get in ahead of Sheffield Wednesday to secure Davis Keillor-Dunn's signature this summer. The 28-year-old has shown at Oakwell that he is comfortable leading the line by himself or as part of a two-man strike partnership, and Daniel Stendel flipped between the two throughout his successful 2018/19 campaign in the dugout, so a return would be perfect for both the club and Keillor-Dunn himself.
