Terriers manager Neil Warnock is keen to strengthen his Huddersfield squad before the close of the transfer window in September and has made Wiles a top target.
Wiles, 24, has entered the final year of his contract in South Yorkshire, and Huddersfield are growing in confidence that they will be able to persuade Rotherham to sell this summer.
However, after a poor start to their Championship season with no wins in their opening three league fixtures, it seems Huddersfield are open to completing some late transfer business.
Wiles has established himself as a key man since breaking into the Rotherham side and he started in their three opening matches this season
He missed Rotherham’s latest clash against Sunderland on Saturday (19 August) with a hip injury but is expected to return to action soon.

Wiles was a crucial figure for Rotherham at the start of last season, making 23 consecutive starts in the league before dropping out of the team in late December due to an ankle injury.
Since breaking into the first team in 2017, Wiles has gone on to make 193 total appearances for the Yorkshire outfit, scoring and assisting 17 times.
The Northern Irish international is a full-back and joins from the Championship side for the rest of the season, having penned a new contract with The Terriers until 2025 prior to the switch.
He joined Huddersfield from Cliftonville in 2020 and initially played in the under 17 side at the club. He made a quick impression at that level and the decision was taken to skip the Under 19s team and go straight into the B team.
In May 2022, the defender won the Antoni’s Memorial Academy Player of the Year trophy at Huddersfield for his impressive displays.
He the progressed to first-team level and has made six senior appearances in all competitions.
The 19-year-old made his international debut for the Northern Irish senior side 2022 against Kosovo, where he assisted one of the goals. He has three caps so far.
“Brodie is a real quality player with bags of potential” Stuart Kettlewell said.
“I think it says a lot when the parent club offer a player a new deal before loaning him out. It shows their real desire to see the player grow and I think Brodie will do just that.
“With international caps in the senior team at such a young age, it only shows how much quality he’s got.
“It’s been a busy couple of days but I’m buzzing to be here,” Spencer said.
“This is a great opportunity for me to get minutes and impress in a first-team environment.
“I feel like the club and the manager is a good fit for me and I can’t wait to get going.”
