Ex-Pompey loan man offered deal

Di’Shon Bernard, who had a loan spell at Pompey in 2023, has been offered a new deal by Sheffield Wednesday, as detailed on their retained list. The Owls managed to stay up in this past campaign under Danny Rohl and are keen to keep hold of the defender.

The 23-year-old’s current contract at Hillsborough expires at the end of next month. He was on the books at Manchester United for six years before his switch to South Yorkshire.

Norwich City managerial latest

Norwich City are in the hunt for a new manager to replace David Wagner after they decided to cut ties with the former Huddersfield Town man after their heavy loss in the play-offs to Leeds United. The Canaries have a decision to make as to who to bring in as his replacement.

According to The Telegraph, Liam Rosenior could be an ‘option’ and they have ‘sounded out’ Steve Cooper as a potential candidate. However, Arsenal coach Carlos Cuesta is not understood to be on their radar.
