Reggae boyz defender Di’shon Bernard has re-signed with English Championship outfit Sheffield Wednesday after long-held contract negotiations ended successfully.
Bernard moved to Hillsborough last summer from Manchester United and played 36 times in all competitions for the Owls who pulled off an unlikely survival effort with three wins in the last three games of the season.
The 23-year-old was offered a new contract in May as per the club’s retained list but the situation went unresolved until now, as talks continued throughout the summer.
Discussions are said to have been parked during his involvement in the Copa America, which saw Bernard play in all three group stage matches before Jamaica was eliminated.
News of Bernard’s signing will serve as a boost to Wednesday’s team heading into this weekend’s departure to Germany for the second of their pre-season camps.
The length of the contract was not disclosed.
