The Sheffield Wednesday star has been linked with Birmingham City and Middlesbrough this window.

Barry Bannan’s latest tweet has helped to allay fears the midfielder could be leaving Sheffield Wednesday, amid reports of interest from Birmingham City and Middlesbrough.
The Star reported last week that both the Blues and Boro are tracking Bannan, who is about to enter the final year of his contract at Hillsborough.

And this is what Sheffield Wednesday fans have had to say in response:
Bannan missed more than three months of last season, as an injury-ravaged Wednesday slipped to 15th in the Championship standings – 10 places behind Middlesbrough and four above Birmingham.
The Owls won six of the eight games in which the 28-year-old appeared after his March return.
Will Bannan still be a Sheffield Wednesday player come September, given the alleged Middlesbrough and Birmingham interest?
