There are two bidders battling for control of Sheffield Wednesday.

The News of the World says Hillsborough insiders are confident an embarrassing chapter will shortly culminate in a £10million buy-out.

Among those expressing interest are millionaire fan Spencer Fearn and ex-West Ham chairman Eggert Magnusson.

But board sources insist the real deal is being conducted in private with unnamed parties.

The Owls are negotiating a deal that will see Howard Wilkinson remain as chairman.
