Sheffield Wednesday have received a double injury boost, with reliable journalist Alex Miller saying Barry Bannan and Ben Heneghan are back in training.

The Lowdown: Sheff Wed big misses

The Owls may be flying high in League One currently, sitting second in the division, but Darren Moore isn't without some injury problems.

Both Bannan and Heneghan have been absent of late, with the former's work rate and craft in midfield a miss, and the latter not being available since back in October.

It now looks as though the pair's return could be in sight, however, following a key update.

The Latest: Positive update emerges

Writing on Twitter, Miller confirmed that Bannan and Heneghan are back in training for Wednesday:

"A belting surprise to see Barry Bannan and Ben Heneghan out on the grass at Middlewood Road - both doing individual work at different stages of their comeback."

The Verdict: Major boost for Owls

This is a massive boost for the Owls, who find themselves in a relentless automatic promotion tussle with Plymouth Argyle and Ipswich Town currently.

Bannan has been a mainstay in the Wednesday side for a number of years now, racking up a total of 334 appearances for the club, and is also the team's captain and leader.

Meanwhile, Heneghan will be a big player for Wednesday between now and the end of the season - he has won an average of 6.2 aerial duels per game in the league this season - especially with fellow centre-back Mark McGuinness set to return to Cardiff City.
