A former Carlisle United loanee is on his way out of League One.
Reece James has departed relegated Blackpool to sign permanently for Sheffield Wednesday.
The full-back was on loan with the Owls last season as he helped them to promotion to the Championship.
The 29-year-old now heads to Hillsborough ahead of their return to the second tier in 2023/24.

James was on loan at Carlisle in 2013/14 - their most recent League One season - from Manchester United.
But he only managed two appearances in an injury-hit spell under Greg Abbott.
Since then James has played for Rotherham United, Huddersfield Town, Wigan Athletic, Sunderland, Doncaster Rovers, then joining Blackpool in 2021 before last season's spell in Sheffield.
