Scotland striker Jordan Rhodes' £10m deadline day move to Sheffield Wednesday has been approved by the The Football League.
Official met on Wednesday to determine whether or not Jordan Rhodes ' move from Middlesbrough to Sheffield Wednesday was completed before the transfer deadline and ruled that it had been.
The Owls agreed a £10million fee with Boro for the striker, 26, as they tried to push an 11th-hour deal through.
Rhodes has agreed a four-year deal having struggled for first-team football on Teesside this season.

But Steve Bruce's side refused to meet Boro's £10m asking price for the 13-times capped frontman.
On transfer deadline day 12 months ago he joined Middlesbrough for a fee reported to be in the region of £9million and helped Boro into the Premier League.
