Sheffield Wednesday have signed Everton midfielder Ross Barkley on loan in time for tonight's game at The Amex.

The 18-year-old is expected to be among the subs as the Owls take on Albion.

Wednesday boss Dave Jones said: "We have been chasing Ross for some time and I'm really pleased to have him on board.

"He's energetic, good in the air and a box to box player who can score a goal."

Wednesday are expected to give starts to recent signings Jay Bothroyd in attack and Martin Taylor in central defence.
