David Bates, Massimo Luongo and Jacob Murphy could make Wednesday bows
Posted Friday, August 09, 2019 by PA
Sheffield Wednesday will assess deadline-day signings David Bates, Massimo Luongo and Jacob Murphy ahead of the South Yorkshire derby with Barnsley.
Defender Bates arrived from Hamburg, midfielder Luongo came from QPR and Murphy made the switch from Newcastle on Thursday and interim boss Lee Bullen will see how they get on in their first training session.
Goalkeeper Keiren Westwood is suspended after his red card in last week’s season-opening win against Reading so Cameron Dawson will step up.
Defender Dominic Iorfa is also banned as he completes a suspension that ran over from last season.
Barnsley are unlikely to include deadline-day signings Clarke Oduor and Patrick Schmidt at Hillsborough.
Left-back Oduor arrived on a four-year deal from Leeds while striker Schmidt was plucked from Austrian side Admira Wacker as the Reds took their number of summer signings to 12.
Winger Jacob Brown is still missing as he nurses an ankle injury picked up in a training camp in Nice over pre-season.
First-team coach Dale Tonge has reported no other fresh concerns, meaning left-back Dani Pinillos is fit.
