Sheffield Wednesday have signed goalkeeper Joe Lumley on a free transfer from Bristol City. The 31-year-old has signed a two-year deal at Hillsborough following a brief loan spell with the Owls last season, when he made two appearances.
What happened?
Lumley, who has also had spells with Queens Park Rangers, Middlesbrough, and Southampton, has joined the Owls on a free transfer. He has signed a two-year deal at Hillsborough, which will keep him at the club until 2028.
Why it matters for Sheffield Wednesday
The signing of Lumley is a boost for the Owls, who were relegated from the Championship last season. The 31-year-old goalkeeper will provide competition for the existing goalkeepers at the club.
What comes next?
The Owls will be looking to build on the signing of Lumley and strengthen their squad ahead of the new season. The club has already undergone a takeover, which has helped to avoid a 15-point penalty for the forthcoming League One campaign.
