Sheff Weds sign Nuhiu

Sheffield Wednesday have signed Atdhe Nuhiu on a free transfer, subject to international clearance.

The 23-year-old, who was a free agent after leaving Turkish side Eskisehirspor at the end of last season, has penned a three-year deal at Hillsborough.

The former Austria Under-21 international had recently been on trial at Premier League side Crystal Palace.

Owls boss Dave Jones told BBC Radio Sheffield: "We've been watching him for some months now and the kid is a real talent with loads of ability.

"He gives us another dimension and something totally different to what we've got. He's got good movement, he's good with both feet and he links play very well.

"He's good in the air, as you'd expect, and we're absolutely delighted to have got him."

Nuhiu scored two goals in 30 appearances for Eskisehirspor last season.
