In a statement released earlier today at the iconic Hillsborough Stadium, Chansiri reaffirmed his commitment to restoring the club’s glory and backing the current leadership under head coach Henrik Pedersen.
Shortly after the board’s message, Coach Pedersen stepped forward with a major announcement that sent waves of excitement through the fanbase. In a bold and symbolic move, he officially named long-serving midfielder Barry Bannan as the new club captain.
Speaking during the announcement, Pedersen praised Bannan’s leadership qualities, loyalty, and passion for the club:
“Barry represents everything this club stands for—commitment, resilience, and heart. He is the perfect leader to guide this team into a new era.”
Bannan, visibly emotional, expressed his gratitude and pride in taking on the role, promising to lead by example both on and off the pitch.
Fans gathered around the stadium and flooded social media with support, hailing the decision as a “perfect choice” and a “new beginning” for the Owls.
With this leadership change, optimism is growing that Sheffield Wednesday could be entering a fresh chapter—one driven by unity, determination, and a renewed push for success.
