Wednesday in talks with Cardiff forward

According to the Sheffield Star, Cardiff striker Kenwyne Jones is in talks with Sheffield Wednesday over a possible loan move.

Jones could be set for his second loan spell at Wednesday a huge 11 years after his first one.

The Trinidad and Tobago international has had a successful last few months. Firstly, helping AFC Bournemouth to the Championship title and scoring two goals in four games for his country in this summers Gold Cup in the USA.

Dubbed the next Dwight Yorke as a youngster, Jones went on loan to Wednesday in December 2004 making an instant impact by scoring a goal in a 4-0 win over fellow Yorkshire side, Doncaster Rovers. He then went on to score in all but one of his seven appearances for The Owls including two goals in the 4-0 drubbing of Wrexham. He finished his spell at Wednesday with a 100% record. 7 goals in 7 games. He was subsequently recalled and took part in two Premiership matches for The Saints but failing to score in them both.

He since then has spent time at Sunderland, Bournemouth, Cardiff and Stoke where he broke the club record fee paid for a player, £8m.

Last season, Jones scored against Wednesday at Hillsborough and refused to celebrate which brought many fans in the Kop to applaud the striker. He knows he is loved at the club and has expressed many times on Twitter that he is a ‘Wednesday fan’. This is all good news for Wednesday fans after Lees’ signing a new deal and Lucas Joao signing for £1m from Nacional.
