Sheffield Wednesday has announced that both Barry Bannan and Liam Palmer have agreed to new contracts to remain at Hillsborough. Bannan, who is the club captain at 34 years old, has played in 402 matches for the team since joining from Crystal Palace in 2015. On the other hand, Palmer, 32, is a product of the Owls academy and holds the title of the longest-serving player with 435 appearances under his belt.
Both Bannan and Palmer were set to leave the club this summer, but with their contributions in helping Sheffield Wednesday avoid relegation from the Championship, they have been offered contract extensions. The length of these extensions has not been disclosed by the club, leaving fans eager to learn more about the future of these key players.
The news of this new deal for Bannan comes after the midfielder expressed uncertainty earlier in the year about his future at the club. However, with this contract extension, it seems that both Bannan and Palmer will continue to contribute to Sheffield Wednesday’s success on the pitch.
