Sheffield Wednesday ‘keen’ on £3m Southampton man who played for Peterborough United in historic comeback game
Sheffield Wednesday are allegedly interested in acquiring defender Ronnie Edwards on loan from Southampton.
Edwards, a highly regarded centre-back, joined the Saints in the summer after establishing himself as one of League One’s top performers.
He was a significant figure for Peterborough United, appearing in the Posh’s play-off semi-finals against Wednesday in 2023.
The 21-year-old has found opportunities limited at St Mary’s since his £3m move, despite the club’s struggles in the Premier League.
He has been afforded just one Premier League outing, a substitute appearance in a 5-1 defeat to Chelsea earlier this month.
According to The Star, Wednesday are interested in signing Edwards, with the defender expected to be loaned out in January.
A temporary swap appears to be the best option for the defender, who has represented England at the under-19 and under-20 levels.

Edwards, a defender who has represented England at the under-19 and under-20 levels, could be a valuable addition
to the Championship side, despite his lack of game time in the top flight. Wednesday have already signed midfielder
Shea Charles on a season-long loan deal with Southampton this season, and Charles has thrived under Rohl’s
tutelage, making him a potential bargaining chip.
