Departed Sheffield Wednesday man Joey Pelupessy ‘agrees terms’ with Turkish top flight side

Departed Sheffield Wednesday man Joey Pelupessy is on the verge of joining Turkish top flight side Giresunspor, reports from Turkey (via Sheffield Star) claim.

Pelupessy, 28, is a free agent following his release from Sheffield Wednesday.

The Dutch midfielder featured 38 times in the Championship last season as the Owls finished rock-bottom of the table, succumbing them to relegation into League One.

It was Pelupessy’s third-and-a-half season at Hillsborough following his arrival from Heracles midway through he 2017/18 season.

He often proved a contested figure but played an active role in the Championship last season, and has since had interest from the Netherlands and from the Championship too.

Now though, it looks as though Pelupessy could be heading for Giresunspor who’ve just achieved promotion into the Turkish Super Lig, with the above reports claiming that he’s ‘agreed terms’ with the club.

Thoughts?

Pelupessy received a lot of criticism from Sheffield Wednesday fans last season, proving a contested name throughout.

But he never shied away in games and that combined with his work-rate and desire actually garnered him a strong supporting from fans, making him quite the dividing player at Hillsborough.

A move to the Turkish top flight would be hugely exciting for Pelupessy and with a club like Giresunspor that are on the up, he could find himself there for the next few years.

Wednesday fans will wish him well in his next voyage as the Owls continue to gear up for League One.
