Sheffield Wednesday’s midfield is set for a potentially fierce reunion at Oxford United tomorrow, as they may face former Owls star Will Vaulks.

Vaulks departed Hillsborough in the summer after his contract ended, joining Oxford United and embracing a new challenge at the Kassam Stadium. During his time with Wednesday, the Wales international earned the club’s Player of the Year award, thanks to his pivotal role in their dramatic survival last season.

Although Vaulks missed Oxford’s midweek loss to QPR, marking his first absence this Championship season, he could return to face his former team. If so, the Owls will be well aware of the intensity and determination he brings to the pitch.
