 Johnson's Owls contract will run until the summer of 2010 |
Sheffield Wednesday have signed Bradford City's Jamaican winger Jermaine Johnson after a successful application for a work permit. The 26-year-old, whonjoins for an undisclosed fee, moved to Valley Parade last summer and scored four goals in 30 starts for the Bantams this term.
He previously had a two-year spell at Oldham, but has agreed a contract until the summer of 2010 with the Owls.
However, he will be suspended for his first two Wednesday matches.
The fee is expected to be in excess of the �250,000 bid Derby County had turned down earlier this month.
Johnson, who also enjoyed a two-month loan spell at Bolton in 2004, was understood to have had a figure written into his contract that allowed him to talk to other clubs.
