The 26-year-old links up with a familiar face at Hillsborough having played at Pacos Ferreira with fellow new Owls recruit Jaun Delgado.

Diaby told swfc.co.uk: “I know Juan, I have played with him before. Before I came I spoke with him and he told me great things about the club.

“I am very happy and I hope we have a good season. I am here to help the team.

“As soon as I heard, it was clear I wanted to come to Sheffield Wednesday and I am very happy because I will finally play in England, it has always been a dream.

“I can’t wait, I have heard a lot of good things about the fans and I want to tell them that me and the rest of the team will do our best to make them happy.”

Diaby has been allocated shirt number 44 for the duration of his S6 stay.
