The former Paris St Germain player has agreed a four-year contract.
Gassama, 21, made one appearance for the French side alongside Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe before joining Wednesday in 2023 and scored 12 goals in 84 games for the Owls.
The France Under-20 international has now moved to Glasgow for an undisclosed fee, understood to be about £2.2million.

Martin told Rangers' website: 'We are very excited to bring Djeidi to the club. He is certainly an exciting player who will get supporters on the edge of their seats and I believe he will add an extra dimension to our attack with his qualities.
'He is hungry to improve as a player and, most importantly, is desperate to pull on the Rangers jersey and help deliver success to the club.'
Gassama added: 'I am very excited to start with my new club, it is a club with a lot of history and I am very happy. This is a big club, and I need that for my next level and I think it can help me progress.'
Gassama had the best of tuition as an up-and-coming player.
He trained at PSG alongside world superstars Messi, Mbappe and Neymar and he believes that has stood him in good stead for his football journey, which continues in Glasgow.
He said: 'I started playing when I was young and then I played for the under-19's at PSG and made my debut.
'It was crazy to be in a team with players like Messi, Mbappe, Neymar.
'It was a good experience for me to train with them, I learned a lot of things about the gym, what they do on and off the pitch.
'They give 100 per cent and when you see them, you have to do the same and even the training with them is like a game.
'The last two years moving to Sheffield, they gave me a good progression and a good experience in English football.
'I took my chance and now I am here and I think I can continue to improve here.'
