Last updated 10th Jul 2026
Sheffield Wednesday have announced that Pierce Charles has joined Manchester City.
The Owls wish the goalkeeper all the best for the future.
Sporting Director, Simon Wilson, said:
“At 20, the quality and consistency of Pierce’s performances have naturally attracted interest from elite clubs throughout the last 12 months. We engaged with him to secure his long-term future but understood his desire to take this opportunity and with one year remaining on his contract, this agreement protects the long-term interests of our club.
“Although we are disappointed to lose him from our group, Pierce’s story is one that should be celebrated by all who played a part in his journey – from his acquisition to his development within our academy and first team. He is an example we hope many players can replicate in the future and we wish him well at Manchester City, who we continue to build an exceptional relationship with.”
