We use Capology’s anticipated estimates to calculate how much Sheffield Wednesday may save in salary by removing Ugbo in January. Ike Ugbo’s Sheffield Wednesday salary Ike Ugbo of Sheffield Wednesday. Ugbo joined Hillsborough on loan from Troyes in the January transfer window of 2024. The player signed on a permanent basis after helping the club stay in the Championship under Danny Rohl. The 27-year-old played 18 games as the team ended 20th in the table before signing a £2.5 million contract with the French club. Ugbo’s contract expires in the summer of 2028, so he still has more than two years left. As a result, the forward is one of Sheffield Wednesday’s highest-paid players, earning almost £20,000 per week. If he leaves permanently in January, Ugbo’s earnings might be reduced by over £2.6 million, with an additional £650k in potential bonuses. However, if it was a loan exit, the Owls could be required to pick up a portion of the salary. Despite his high wage, Ugbo has struggled for form since sealing his permanent move to the Owls. While he scored seven goals in 18 loan outings, he has yet to score again for the Championship side. Ugbo didn’t score once in 34 games in the second division last season, and his problems in front of goal have continued under Pedersen. With the January window approaching and Hillsborough’s financial condition still unclear, it could be beneficial for all parties if a deal was reached that allowed him to go on. Sheffield Wednesday’s top earnings.

Sheffield Wednesday’s top earnings. Barry Bannan Ugbo is not now the biggest earner on Pedersen’s team, with Barry Bannan taking the top spot. The club captain earns £25,000 per week, which puts him ahead of Yan Valery, Nathaniel Chalobah, Dominic Iorfa, and Ugbo, who all make £20,000 per week. If Ugbo leaves, the Owls might save up to £500,000 for the second half of the season, as his yearly salary is slightly over £1 million. While Sheffield Wednesday are unable to pay fees to recruit new players, the money might be used to bring in free agents, which could be equally crucial. The Yorkshire club may be all but relegated at this point, but the January transfer window might still be used to strengthen the squad and better prepare for the coming seasons. It remains to be seen whether there will be a market for Ugbo, who will likely want to be somewhere where he can get regular game time ahead of the World Cup next summer, but his sale could provide some value for Sheffield Wednesday during their takeover uncertainties.
