Connor Wickham extends Sheffield Wednesday loan
- Published
Sheffield Wednesday have extended the loan spell of Sunderland striker Connor Wickham.
The 20-year-old, who also spent time on loan with the Owls last season, has been at Hillsborough since 1 November.
The England Under-21 international has scored six goals in eight games and will stay at the club until 29 January.
He began his career at Ipswich before moving to Sunderland in a deal worth around 拢8m in June 2011, and has since made 40 appearances for the Black Cats.
Meanwhile, Glenn Loovens has also extended his stay with the Championship club.
The 30-year-old signed on a month-by-month basis in early December but the Dutch defender has now agreed a contract extension through to the end of the season.
The former Cardiff and Celtic centre-back has so far made five appearances, during which the Owls have conceded only three goals and lost just once.
