Rob Edwards and Vincent Kompany seem as though they are planning for The Championship next season. Luton are three points adrift of safety with two games to play, and Burnley are five behind 17th position.
The chances are that both will be in the Championship next season and are looking for additions to help mount a surge for promotion at the first attempt next season, with Poveda said to be on their shortlist.
Sunderland are also interested in doing a deal for Poveda even if Wednesday boss Rohl has made it clear he would like to sign Poveda beyond his loan spell, on a permanent basis and that seems likely right now.
Clearly, Poveda will not be at Leeds next summer even if the club stay in the Championship and fail in the play-offs. The winger needs a change and to find a team where he is going to play regularly next term.
Poveda is happy at Wednesday and the proof of that is his posts on Instagram in which he often teases his opposition. He has produced some glimpses of magic in a side that should do a lot better next term.
A move to Luton or Burnley even in the championship would be no different than the one he has faced at Leeds, in which he is more of a squad player and right now that does not help Poveda’s need for minutes.
Sunderland could be a good move given their faith in younger players and the likelihood that Jack Clarke leaves the Black Cats. But he is happy at Wednesday and he would be right to agree a permanent stay.
