Sheffield Wednesday owner Dejphon Chansiri is reportedly looking for foreign investment in a bid to avoid selling the Championship club, despite growing fan unrest and the team’s struggles on the pitch.

The Owls remain in the Championship relegation zone after a heavy 3-0 defeat at home to Bristol City on Saturday. The result further deepened concerns among supporters, who have long voiced their frustration with Chansiri’s leadership.

Sheffield Wednesday Fans Continue Protests Against Chansiri

Sheffield Wednesday supporters have staged several protests against Chansiri since the summer. Demonstrations have included:

  • A five-minute delayed entry at Leicester’s King Power Stadium on the opening day of the season.
  • A mock funeral procession before the first home league game against Stoke City.
  • A boycott of the EFL Cup clash with Leeds United.

Despite mounting pressure, it appears Chansiri is determined to hold onto ownership of the club rather than selling outright.

Chansiri Seeking Overseas Investment

According to journalist Alan Nixon, Chansiri is exploring overseas investment to ease financial pressures and avoid a full sale of Sheffield Wednesday. Reports suggest the club met its financial obligations at the end of August through this route.

However, any significant investment would need to be secured against club assets, with Hillsborough Stadium the most likely guarantee.

Sheffield Wednesday’s Valuation Sparks Debate

Chansiri has previously valued Sheffield Wednesday at around £100 million, but many football finance experts believe that figure is unrealistic. Insiders suggest the club’s true market value could be less than half that amount, especially given its current Championship status and financial instability.

While fans continue to call for Chansiri to step aside, the owner’s pursuit of foreign investment indicates he plans to remain at the helm. With the team battling at the foot of the Championship table, the future of Sheffield Wednesday both on and off the pitch remains uncertain.
