Crystal Palace and Fulham join race for Danny Rohl as Sheffield Wednesday future hangs in balance.

Danny Röhl’s future at Sheffield Wednesday is uncertain, as reports from Germany suggest Premier League interest in the 36-year-old has increased.

Crystal Palace and Fulham are reportedly interested in hiring the Owls’ manager as a replacement for their current managers this summer.

Röhl’s contract at Hillsborough has a release clause in the low single-digit millions, making him an appealing option for clubs looking for an ambitious and tactically astute head coach.

Röhl’s success in guiding Wednesday from a relegation battle to a 12th-place Championship finish in 18 months has earned him admirers across the footballing landscape. However, recent links indicate a significant escalation.

Crystal Palace and Fulham are now interested in Danny Rohl, as previous interest from Southampton, Leicester City, and RB Leipzig remains.

 

Crystal Palace and Fulham may become new contenders for Röhl if either club’s manager changes, according to Sky Germany.

With Oliver Glasner and Marco Silva attracting external attention and facing uncertain futures, Röhl has been identified as a potential top-flight candidate.

Röhl was previously linked with Leicester City, Southampton, and RB Leipzig due to his coaching background at Red Bull.

While these previous links have cooled in recent weeks, the arrival of new Premier League suitors may complicate Wednesday’s efforts to retain their manager.

Röhl’s quick rise in South Yorkshire has made him a household name among Europe’s emerging coaches.

Appointed in October 2023, he turned around Xisco Munoz’s disastrous start to the campaign by implementing a high-energy style and overseeing notable victories that lifted the Owls out of the bottom three on the final day of the 23/24 campaign.

Sheffield Wednesday braces for key summer as Röhl keeps cards close to the chest.

After Wednesday’s season-ending 1-1 draw against Watford, speculation about Röhl’s next move has increased.

Röhl has confirmed internal discussions with Owls chairman Dejphon Chansiri, but has yet to confirm his plans to remain at Hillsborough for the 2025/26 season.

Supporters have grown increasingly concerned about the lack of clarity, particularly in light of renewed Premier League interest.

The club’s efforts to build on Röhl’s transformative first year may be jeopardised by a reluctant managerial search this summer.

As things stand, one of the Championship’s most promising young coaches’ future is wide open, and the list of clubs vying for his services grows.
