Jun 2025 Sheffield Wednesday have been charged by the EFL for “multiple breaches” relating to the club’s payment obligations. In March, the Sky Bet Championship club failed to pay the

players their salaries on time due to what were described as “cashflow” issues. It has since been reported there were also problems with payments for May – which are also said to have

included non-playing club staff and other employees. The EFL described the situation as “clearly concerning”, with the governing body “considering all the options available”. On Tuesday, the

EFL subsequently confirmed formal action had now been initiated. “Sheffield Wednesday Football Club has been charged with multiple breaches of EFL Regulations relating to payment

obligations,” a statement from the EFL read. “The owner of Sheffield Wednesday, Dejphon Chansiri, has also been charged with causing the club to be in breach of EFL Regulations despite his

commitment to fund the cash requirements of the club. READ MORE: Sheffield Wednesday players sent letter as wages unpaid AGAIN with club facing transfer embargoREAD MORE: When Premier League

with a resolution sought “at the earliest possible opportunity”. “Sheffield Wednesday acknowledge the statement issued by the EFL on Tuesday afternoon,” a statement on the Owls’ official

website read. “The club continue to seek a resolution regarding outstanding salaries due for the month of May at the earliest possible opportunity. “Mr Chansiri sincerely apologises to all

players, coaches and staff affected and everyone connected with the club. We will make no further comment at this time.” _Join our new WhatsApp community __and receive your daily dose of
