Sheffield Wednesday open contract talks with Pierce Charles
According to the Wednesday World, Sheffield Wednesday are keen on keeping Charles at the club and have opened talks with him over a new contract.
Along with the Gers, there are a number of teams interested in signing the goalkeeper whose deal at Hillsborough will run out in June 2027.
Manchester City, Leeds United, Queens Park Rangers and Cardiff City are all keeping tabs on Wednesday’s hot prospect.
However, they may all be disappointed this summer if Charles commits his future to the club.
Most fans are resigned to parting ways with him this summer, but if these talks are fruitful, he could remain for the 2026/27 season.

Why is Rangers target Charles so highly rated?
Despite Wednesday’s on-field struggles, Charles manages to stand out due to his stellar shot-stopping abilities.
There was a game against Leicester City this season in which he made 11 saves, showcasing that he is destined for the top.
He also excels with his feet, being known to be a composed passer capable of playing accurate long balls with ease.
Despite being 20, he has been lauded for his maturity and also for how well he commands the penalty area and defenders around him.
Being a full international, he has taken up the additional responsibilities, and that will undoubtedly help Rangers or any club looking to secure his services.
The Ibrox outfit know that if they do not sign him this summer, it is going to be extremely hard to secure his services in the future, as there could be top European clubs willing to make offers for him.
Rohl knows him well and shares a good relationship with him, so it is important that he leverages that in order to get him to Scotland.
