Sheffield Wednesday take out-of-contract defender on Spanish preseason as duo get back on the ball

The Owls flew out to Alicante on Saturday afternoon to begin a week-long warm weather training camp, with new manager, Xisco, putting them through their paces for over an hour and a half on Sunday morning as they got things underway.

Heneghan was one of those present, with the defender still working his way back to fitness following a serious knee injury last season, and his presence would suggest that there is still a chance that he has the opportunity to stick around at Hillsborough for 2023/24 should he manage to impress the new boss.

There was also good news for the Owls as both Liam Palmer and Mallik Wilks were seen doing ballwork once again as they get closer to full fitness, and fans will be hoping that they could potentially feature in one of the games down in Murcia next week.

Wednesday first face Real Murcia on Tuesday evening before taking on CD Eldense on Friday morning ahead of their return over the weekend. Both games will take place at Pinatar Arena, which lays on the border between Murcia and Valencia.

Xisco has also brought a whole host of youngsters with him to Spain, including Sean Fusire, Pierce Charles and Cian Flannery, as he assesses their levels before it is decided how much of a role they can play in the campaign ahead.
