“I Thought I Was Honking” – Bailey Cadamarteri’s Honest Admission After Sheffield Wednesday Exit

Bailey Cadamarteri has opened up about his final appearance for Sheffield Wednesday before completing his move to Wrexham, admitting he was not entirely satisfied with his own performance.

The 20-year-old striker featured at Hillsborough against Wrexham on January 31, with speculation already growing about his potential switch to the Welsh side. It proved to be his last outing in Wednesday colours.

Speaking on That Wrexham Podcast, the Jamaica international reflected candidly on the night.

“I must have been unbelievable — I thought I was honking,” he joked. “But I got the nod after, so I must have done alright.”

The remark captured the young forward’s grounded nature as he prepares for a new chapter in his career.

A product of Sheffield Wednesday’s academy, Cadamarteri emerged as one of the club’s promising young talents during a challenging period. He leaves having scored seven goals in 57 appearances for the Owls.

He also enjoyed a productive loan spell at Lincoln City, registering eight goals in 31 matches, further sharpening his development at senior level.

Reflecting on his journey so far, Cadamarteri admitted the pace of his progress has been eye-opening.

“It’s been good, to be fair. It’s been eye-opening as well. When you’re a young lad growing up, you don’t expect time to fly as quickly as it has.”

Now at Wrexham, the striker will be hoping to turn honest self-criticism into consistent performances as he looks to make his mark at his new club.
