EFL Championship News

Sheffield Wednesday owner Dejphon Chansiri has been warned by the Government that "change is coming" amid continued calls for him to sell the club.

Tom Hamilton joins "The Football Reporters" podcast to explain why the odds are stacked against any club hoping to repeat Leicester City's unlikely Premier League title win.

Whether they change club 51 times, play past their 50th birthday, set world records or play on every continent, some players just want to keep going.

Tyler Young has signed for Ipswich Town's U21s, raising the possibility of him appearing alongside his father Ashley Young for the Championship side.

United States striker Josh Sargent said he is in a "good spot" with English Championship side Norwich City after rumors emerged of a possible summer move for the 25-year-old American goalscorer.
