Sheffield United transfer update on Kalvin Phillips and Harry Souttar shared by reporter – Yahoo Sports UK
Sheffield United are reportedly considering moves for Kalvin Phillips and Harry Souttar as they plan for the next transfer window. The update matters because both players could strengthen key areas of Chris Wilder’s squad, although neither deal was presented as complete.
Phillips, then on loan from Manchester City, was said to be a target for a longer-term move after Jairo Riedewald’s departure created a midfield vacancy. Souttar, a Leicester City defender who previously spent time with Sheffield United, was also linked with a return, but any agreement would depend on Leicester’s position and the financial terms involved.
In short
- Sheffield United are linked with Phillips and Souttar.
- Phillips could fill a midfield vacancy.
- Neither proposed move was confirmed.
