Sheffield Wednesday have signed Chelsea midfielder Craig Rocastle on a free transfer.
Rocastle joins Owls
The 23-year-old has joined the Owls on a two-and-a-half year contract and could make his debut against the Reds this Saturday - the club with which he spent a month on loan last season.
Rocastle said he hoped to help the Owls to promotion from League One: "A club like this doesn't deserve to be in this division," he said. "Hopefully I can be a part of maintaining the team's good form. I just want to keep playing well. I'll always put my heart and soul into every minute that I play."
