Sheffield Wednesday’s Morgan Fox caught the attention of plenty of Owls fans lately after he posted a tweet in response to another post from Wednesday’s official Twitter account sharing some footage from a recent Owls training session. 

As per the club’s official website, Wednesday returned to their Middlewood Road training ground this past Monday for the first time since professional football was postponed in England back in March as their players took part in “phased group training”. 

The Owls shared some footage of their players taking part in a running drill from this training session via a tweet in which they also revealed that Fox and Jacob Murphy “recorded the fastest time of all the groups on this run”. Fox then shared this post via a tweet of his own in which he also stated that he is “happy to be back”.

Plenty of Wednesday fans have been sharing some positive comments for Fox in response to his recent tweet, with some Owls supporters taking this opportunity to share their joy at seeing Fox return to training.

Some Wednesday supporters took this opportunity to call for Fox to sign a new deal with Wednesday. 

Fox, who is currently valued at £720k by Transfermarkt, has earned an average match rating of 6.81/10 from his 26 Championship appearances for the Owls this season, according to WhoScored

It may be fair to say that he has performed quite well in some areas for Wednesday this term, registering 2.1 tackles per Championship game, which is the fifth-highest of any Wednesday player, as well as having made 1.3 interceptions per Championship game, which is the joint-fourth highest of any Owls player in the league this term. 

With that in mind, it may be understandable why some Owls fans may have been impressed by his performances of late and it might not be too surprising that some of them are happy to see Fox back in training.
