Owls swoop for Lunt!

Last updated : 31 May 2006 By ChalkDust
Out of contract and 26-year-old Kenny Lunt looks set to sign for Sheffield Wednesday today after he had agreed to sign for the Owls.
This will be Paul Sturrocks third signing of the season and it sees a nine year tenure ship with the Alex come to an end.
Lunt had made over 400 appearances for
Crewe during a nine year period making his first appearance in the league in a 2-0 defeat to Swindon Town back in 1997. Lunt had been linked with a host of clubs in the Championship these being Leeds United, Wolves, Southampton, Burnley, Leiciester City, Stoke City and Sheff Weds. Dario had offered the midfield play maker a 10 year contract and also a testimonial but the lure of regular first team football in the Championship seems to be the deciding factor plus a better wage.
