Sheffield Wednesday have made two additions to Danny Rohl's coaching staff.
The 34-year-old will be embarking on senior management for the first time when he leads the Owls out at Watford on Saturday, so has shrewdly decided to surround himself with experience. His former RB Leipzig colleague and Manchester United sports psychologist Sascha Lense joined as performance manager in time to be involved in this week's training sessions but now Henrik Pederson and Chris Powell have also joined up. As a former Huddersfield Town manager, Powell is well known in these parts.
He has been on the coaching staffs at Den Haag and Tottenham Hotspur. Pederson, not to be confused with the former Hull City and Bolton Wanderers who shares his name and Danish nationality, is someone Rohl has known for a decade, and has managed in Norway, Germany, Ghana and his homeland. The 45 year-old has left his job managing Vendsyssel FF in Denmark to move to South Yorkshire, and has previously managed Stromsgodset, Braunschweig, HB Koge and RB Ghana.
