Sheffield Wednesday are said to be interested in Scott Tanser as the out-of-contract St Johnstone left-back assesses his future (Yorkshire Live).

The defender is currently in contract discussions with St Johnstone over a new deal after helping the club win a historic League Cup and Scottish Cup double in the 2020/21 season. But there are options down south too, Sheffield Wednesday being one of them.

Doncaster Rovers and Shrewsbury Town could be two more potential destinations while Mansfield Town were previously interested in signing the left-back. But Saints hope to keep Tanser, with European football in the Europa League one potential pull to keep him in Perth beyond the summer.

Sheffield Wednesday are currently working with a transfer embargo due to the late filing of their 2019/20 accounts, only having Scotland international Liam Palmer and youngster Ryan Galvin contracted as recognised full-backs. Darren Moore’s side can still sign players on a free and on non-fee loan deals.
