Then that’ll obviously benefit me in the long run.
“The main focus now is with Sheffield Wednesday at the minute, and hopefully help them get promoted.”
McGuinness also went on to add how he had to be proactive in getting his loan move away from Cardiff, saying that he ‘needed to do something’.
“It all happened very quickly,” he explained. “It was a bit of a strange situation, but I’m 21-years-old, I needed to be playing. I couldn’t sit around and twiddle my thumbs - I needed to do something.
