Ex-Palace, Aston Villa midfielder Bannan to sign new Sheffield Wednesday contract

Barry Bannan is set to commit to Sheffield Wednesday according to reports.

Sky Sports is of the belief that the 26-year-old midfielder, who joined Wednesday from Crystal Palace on a one-year deal in the summer, will pen a long-term contract with the Owls.

Former Aston Villa man Bannan has agreed a three-and-a-half-year deal which will soon be confirmed according to Wednesday boss Carlos Carvalhal.

"I think Barry Bannan will be here with us and I am sure that will be solved soon," he told the Sheffield Star.

"He likes it here with us and we like him."
