Wednesday have confirmed the club is to appeal against a three-window fee restriction imposed today by the EFL.

The EFL statement said: ‘The EFL has today confirmed that Sheffield Wednesday is now subject to a three-window fee restriction after exceeding 30 days of late payments between July 1, 2024 and June, 30 2025.

In accordance with EFL Regulations, the restriction will cover the entirety of this summer’s window and two full windows thereafter (Winter 2026 and Summer 2026).

The Club has notified the EFL of its intention to appeal this decision and this will be heard in due course.

Separately, on 3 June 2025, the EFL issued charges against the Club and owner Mr Dejphon Chansiri in respect of non-payment of Player wages in March 2025 and May 2025. This matter is being considered by an Independent Disciplinary Commission, and because of the ongoing proceedings, the League is unable to comment further at this time.’

The EFL three-window restriction means Wednesday are unable to spend any money on transfers or loans until January 2027.
