Sheffield Wednesday star Gary Hooper is poised to make his long-awaited return to action tomorrow.

The centre-forward is pencilled in to play the first half of the Owls' Under-23s clash with Crystal Palace at Hillsborough on Friday, kick-off 12pm, as he continues his recovery from injury.

Hooper, a key player in Wednesday's run to the Championship play-off final in 2015-16 and in the semi-final qualification in the following campaign, has not featured in 15 months for the South Yorkshire club.
