Sheffield Wednesday manager Steve Bruce has suggested to the club’s official website that Newcastle United-owned Rolando Aarons will train with his teammates today ahead of the match against Leeds United this weekend.

Wednesday will take on Leeds away from home at Elland Road in the Championship on Saturday evening.

Ahead of the game, Bruce has given an update on the injury situation at the club.

The former Aston Villa manager has claimed that 23-year-old winger Aarons – signed on loan from Premier League club Newcastle in the January transfer window – will train today.

Bruce has also stated that Tottenham Hotspur-owned Josh Onomah will also train today.

Bruce told Wednesday’s official website: “We’ll see how they are, both Baz and Dom want to take part in the training session.

“Hutchinson is okay, Aarons is going to try and train today but it will be his first time in two weeks so we’ll see how he is and Josh Onomah will train as well.”

Playoff challenge

Aarons is a very good winger who has done well for Wednesday so far since his loan move from Newcastle, and the 23-year-old will be an important player for the Owls in the final weeks of the season.

The winger – who earns £14,000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com – has made six starts and three substitute appearances in the Championship for Wednesday so far this season, scoring one goal and providing one assist in the process, according to WhoScored.
