Henrik Pedersen: Sheffield Wednesday named manager after Danny Rohl departure

Sheffield Wednesday have appointed Henrik Pedersen as the club’s manager, replacing Danny Rohl who left on Tuesday.

Dane Pedersen, 47, had served as assistant under the German at Hillsborough since arriving at the club in October 2023 and signed a contract extension at the club earlier this month while Rohl’s future remained uncertain.

His appointment comes during a chaotic summer for Wednesday.

Rohl left on Tuesday, there has been a raft of player departures in the past fortnight, while the council has closed the North Stand at Hillsborough because of concerns over its ‘structural integrity’.

Wages for players and staff at the south Yorkshire club have gone unpaid and they are operating under a transfer embargo, after players were paid late in both May and June.

Rohl had looked set to leave last month when he did not return to take pre-season training but eventually came back in early July.
