Sheffield Wednesday complete signing of Adam Reach from Middlesbrough

Sheffield Wednesday have beaten off competition from other Championship clubs to sign Adam Reach from Middlesbrough.

Reach, 23, spent last season on loan at Preston North End, and was a key player in the Boro team which lost the Championship playoff final to Norwich in 2014-15.

The left-winger, who has signed a five-year contract at Hillsborough, moved for a substantial undisclosed fee.

"I'm really pleased. It's been a whirlwind day and I went into it not really knowing what was going to happen," he told Wednesday's official website. "I trained with Boro and then as soon as I was told of the interest from Sheffield Wednesday, I wanted to get straight down here.
