The Sheffield Wednesday manager, Steve Bruce, has confirmed Josh Onomah is currently back at Tottenham Hotspur.

Onomah, who is on a season-long loan at Wednesday from Tottenham, suffered a hamstring injury during Bruce’s first game in charge of the Owls at the start of this month.

A month-long lay-off was initially predicted for the England Under-21 midfielder, but his loan club’s boss does not expect him to return any time soon.

“He is still receiving treatment at Tottenham,” Bruce reportedly told the Sheffield Star. “It was a pretty nasty one and a shame for him.

“I would think it is at least a couple of weeks before we see him back here.”

Onomah has endured a stop-start spell at Sheffield Wednesday, for whom he last started a game in late December.

The 21-year-old impressed in the wins against Preston North End and Middlesbrough that month, but went on to miss the whole of January through injury.
