"We've been watching him for some months now and the kid is a real talent with loads of ability," Owls boss Dave Jones told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"He gives us another dimension and something totally different to what we've got.

"He's got good movement, he's good with both feet and he links play very well. He's good in the air, as you'd expect, and we're absolutely delighted to have got him."
