The winger has become an influential figure for the Millers and was a regular fixture on the right flank as they secured their Championship status last season.

However, the Owls have been linked with the Republic of Ireland international and according to The Star, Wednesday have ramped up their interest. Talks have reportedly been held between involved parties about trying to strike a deal.

According to the report, Ipswich Town and Plymouth Argyle are said to be considering a swoop as well as newly-promoted Premier League outfit Luton Town.
