Sylla Sow (born 8 August 1996) is a Dutch professional footballer. He currently plays for EFL League One side Sheffield Wednesday.[1]

Club career[]

Sow made his professional debut in the Eerste Divisie for Jong FC Utrecht on 5 August 2016 in a game against NAC Breda.[2]

On 29 April 2018, Sow made his debut in the Eredivisie for FC Utrecht in a match against Heracles Almelo, which ended in a 2–2 draw. He came on as a substitute in the 81st minute for Urby Emanuelson, but was unable to score. Thereby, he became the third player from the youth academy to have made his debut in the Eredivisie after having played for Jong FC Utrecht in the second-tier Eerste Divisie. Nick Venema and Odysseus Velanas preceded him.[3]

On 2 January 2019, it was announced that Sow had signed with RKC Waalwijk.[4] He left the club as his contract expired in June 2021.[5]

On 10 August 2021, he moved to England and joined EFL League One club Sheffield Wednesday.[6] He would make his debut in an EFL Trophy match against Newcastle United U21, where he would open the scoring in a 3-0 win.[7]
