And Lopez’s message in particular, appears to have caused a stir among Sheffield Wednesday supporters.
Sheffield Wednesday supporters aren’t the only ones replying to Fernando Forestieri’s latest tweet.
Foresteri’s Owls teammate Barry Bannan and their former Hillsborough colleague, Alex Lopez, are also getting involved after the Argentina-born player posted the word “feliz” – which is Spanish for happy – following his return to training on Tuesday.
Bannan wrote: “He is back #fessi”, with Lopez adding: “Fessi” – the name by which Forestieri is affectionately known by some Wednesday fans – on its own.
Lopez was part of the Sheffield Wednesday side that reached the Championship play-off final two seasons ago, while on loan from Celta Vigo.
However, the 30-year-old failed to return the following campaign, which he spent with Real Valladolid before a permanent transfer to Sporting Gijon last summer.
And even though Lopez has only played seven times for the Asturians – with a back injury keeping him sidelined for much of this season – some Owls supporters would take him back in an instant.
Here’s what they’re saying on Twitter…
It is not the first time that Wednesdayites have expressed a desire to see Lopez return to Hillsborough, however, the chances of him doing so look slim after the Owls moved for Dutch midfielder Joey Pelupessy in January.
As well as Pelupessy and Bannan, Wednesday also have Sam Hutchinson, Kieran Lee, David Jones and Almen Abdi under contract in Lopez’s position next season.
