Getty Images | Selling their stadium helped Wednesday record a £2.5 million pre-tax profit in the 2017/18 financial period and without it the club would have instead presented a pre-tax loss of £35.4 million.

The EFL has issued a number of charges to the club relating to alleged breaches of the body's profitability and sustainability rules following the club's sale of their Hillsborough Stadium.

Wednesday say the charges will be "vigorously defended" and refuse to make further comment.
