Sheffield Wednesday 'plotting' move for former Rotherham United and Northampton Town man

Sheffield Wednesday are reported plotting a swoop for out-of-contract Plymouth Argyle winger Mickel Miller.

Miller, who can also operate as a wing-back, was offered fresh terms by the Pilgrims at the end of the 2023/24 season. However, he has not been confirmed to have signed a new deal at Home Park.

According to Football Insider, Wednesday are looking to add Miller to their ranks when his Plymouth contract runs out. The Owls are said to be hoping their Championship status will help them secure his services ahead of competitors.

Miller is no stranger to South Yorkshire, having previously represented Rotherham United. He turned out for the Millers between 2020 and 2022, amassing 39 appearances and notching four goals.

He left the Millers two years ago to join Plymouth and has since collected 49 appearances for the Pilgrims. The former Hamilton Academical man is a two-time League One promotion-winner, having achieved the feat with both Rotherham and Plymouth.

Reports have suggested there has previously been interest in Miller from the blue side of Sheffield. In 2017, he is said to have spent time on trial at Hillsborough while on the books of non-league side Carshalton Athletic.

Wednesday have been active in the early stages of the summer window, adding three new faces to Danny Rohl’s squad. Ben Hamer has added experience between the sticks, while defenders Max Lowe and Yan Valery have also joined.
