This would potentially make how many Canucks in the Premiership? 3? Hume, Radzinski, & Stalteri (sp?)?Reports: Sheffield Wednesday target Canadian striker Iain Hume for transfer
SHEFFIELD, England (CP) - Canadian international forward Iain Hume has been linked to a move to Sheffield Wednesday of the English Championship.
The Liverpool Daily Post and other British media report that Sheffield Wednesday is looking at spending 500,000 pounds ($1.07 million Cdn) on the 21-year-old Tranmere Rovers striker.
That would represent Wednesday's biggest buy in four years.
Hume, a native of Brampton, Ont., is currently in the U.S. with the Canadian team at the Gold Cup although his playing time has been limited by a thigh injury.
Tranmere just failed to win promotion last season to the Championship, formerly known as the first division, but Sheffield Wednesday did move up.
English reports says Hume, who led Tranmere with 16 goals last season, signed a new deal with Tranmere last season after turning down a move to Preston.
Hume has won 11 caps for Canada.
Whatever happened to that young kid outta TSS... Terry Dunefield or something like that? Wasn't he at Man City?
