Sheffield Wednesday have tied head coach Carlos Carvalhal down to a new contract.

The 50-year-old arrived at Hillsborough last summer and under his guidance the Owls have put 18 wins on the board, leaving them currently in one of the Championship's playoff positions.

His work has now been rewarded in the shape of fresh terms, although the club have refrained from revealing the length of the deal.

"I am delighted that Carlos will be staying with Sheffield Wednesday. I am sure our supporters will also welcome this news as Carlos has led a complete overhaul of the style of football we play, particularly at Hillsborough," chairman Dejphon Chansiri told the club's official website.

"The brief was for the team to play exciting, aggressive and entertaining football, which has been delivered. I look forward to working with Carlos both now and in the future."

Prior to joining Wednesday, Carvalhal had coached the likes of Braga and Porto.
