Wednesday have a number of players who are now into the final year of their contract, and Röhl has spoken before about his intention to make sure the club don’t let players they want to keep head too deeply into the final 12 months of their deals – so that’s something that they’re working on rectifying.

The Owls boss explained that he’s been in discussions with Head of Recruitment, Kevin Beadell, and will also hold conversations with chairman, Dejphon Chansiri, in order to plot the way forward – but acknowledged that with some players they will only speak about their respective situations further down the line.

“Of course,” he told The Star. “This is exactly now what we are working on. I had yesterday a talk with Kevin, now we will speak with the chairman about this.

“Which players we want to extend, which players we can extend, which player wants to extend, and then of course you will have some players, maybe where you speak in detail in January, not now, to see how’s the process.”

He went on to say, “Even though the next window is a little bit far away I have a clear idea in my mind what we have to do in the next two windows, but to go into those windows means that we have to be successful, we have to get points, and we have to continue our way.”
