The former Manchester United, Leicester and Norwich marksman was snapped up by Chris Turner on a temporary deal from Rotherham United and impressed Wednesdayites with his predatory instinct.
But the veteran forward was troubled with a knee problem in the latter part of the season and despite saying he could still do a job after his release, he decided to call time on his career.
He is now looking to get into coaching so he can continue in the game away from the playing side.
In other news, no Owls players have been set up with new clubs at the moment but Alan Quinn is continually being linked with a cross-city switch to The Blades while legendary goalkeeper Kevin Pressman has been touted to join Mick Wadsworth's English revolution at Portuguese outfit Beira Mar.
