Loan defender Lewis Buxton has said that he would consider a permanent stay with Sheffield Wednesday.

The 25-year-old, whose contract with Stoke City runs out next summer, is enjoying life at Hillsborough.

He told the Sheffield Star: "My contract with Stoke is up in the summer and I need to sort something out as soon as I can.

"Sheffield Wednesday is a big club that can go places. I would certainly consider coming here if the chance was to come about."

Buxton has made nine appearances for the Owls since heading to South Yorkshire in October.
