Goalkeeper Joe Lumley has returned to Bristol City after his emergency seven-day loan at Sheffield Wednesday.

Wednesday were allowed to sign Lumley, 30, last week after Ethan Horvath's red card at Charlton left them without a senior goalkeeper.

Northern Ireland's Pierce Charles is still recovering from shoulder surgery and Lumley made his Owls debut against his old club Middlesbrough on Wednesday before starting Saturday's clash against Oxford, the south Yorkshire club's first game since going into administration.

The former Reading and Middlesbrough stopper has now gone back to City, where he has made two EFL Cup appearances since his summer move from Southampton.

Wednesday confirmed Lumley's departure on Monday and said in a statement: "Thank you for stepping in Joe and best of luck for the future."
