Sheffield Wednesday legend Chris Waddle could be set for a surprise return to football.
The veteran former Wednesday, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur star has not featured in a competitive game in a long time.
However, the 62-year-old may be ready for a return to action with his beloved Hallam FC in the Northern Counties East League Premier Division.
Alan Biggs, a Star Sport columnist, has stated that if asked, Waddle would be ready to step in for his team.
He stated on X: Understand there is a strong possibility of Chris Waddle returning to semi-pro football two months short of his 63rd birthday. Hallam FC will consider sending an SOS to the ex-Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur, Sheffield Wednesday and England star amid a chronic run of injuries
Waddle is a friend of Hallam FC (step nine in the pyramid) and it's believed will not need too much encouragement. Never really hung up his boots - Hallam have at least 6 players out with serious injuries. Had to play with 10 men after the latest tonight."
