The EFL today released a statement following Wednesday’s latest failure to pay staff salaries.
The statement said: ‘Sheffield Wednesday Football Club has been charged with multiple breaches of EFL Regulations relating to payment obligations.
The owner of Sheffield Wednesday, Dejphon Chansiri, has also been charged with causing the Club to be in breach of EFL Regulations, despite his commitment to fund the cash requirements of the Club.
All charges relate to both the Ultimate Beneficial Owner and the Club failing to meet their obligations to pay players’ wages on time and in full in March and May 2025.
The Club and Mr Chansiri have 14 days to respond to the charges.’
Wednesday responded with a club statement, saying: ‘Sheffield Wednesday acknowledge the statement issued by the EFL on Tuesday afternoon.
The club continue to seek a resolution regarding outstanding salaries due for the month of May at the earliest possible opportunity.
Mr Chansiri sincerely apologises to all players, coaches and staff affected and everyone connected with the club.
We will make no further comment at this time.’
