Chris Wilder’s side have been hindered given the takeover talk that has slowed and hindered their summer transfer business.
It seems the Blades are finally starting to make the right moves now, but they remain about a month behind their competitors.
Burrows, 22, has been a long-standing interest for Sheffield United.
He played 47 League One games for Peterborough United last season, including two in the play-offs, and scored six, whilst assisting 16 from left back.
Sheffield United have been eyeing a move for Burrows all summer, and they have faced comepttiion from the likes of Preston North End who launched a bid for the youngster.
However, a fresh update claims Sheffield United will now be given the go ahead to complete the signing worth around £3m including add-ons this summer. It goes on to say that an announcement could be mae within the next two days.
A solid signing
Sheffield United will be eyeing promotion back to the Premier League and whilst they may need to manage expectations slightly, they will remain confident in their ability to be in the conversation at least this season.
Burrows is a positive addition to their squad. The 22-year-old is evidently a good player and whilst he lacks much experience in the Championship, his performances last season suggest he will have no issue adapting to the demands of the second tier.
A plus for Wilder and his team’s prospects is that he has made 37 Championship appearances in his career and contributed ten goals in the 2021/22 season when he was even younger.
Finding their feet
Last season, Sheffield United was relegated to the Premier League’s worst team and spent a significant portion of the season leaking goals for amusement.
The Blades are expected to be among the favorites to get promoted this season, but they must prioritize strengthening their foundation and prioritizing stability over success in the near future. In this manner, their chances of succeeding when they return to the top flight in the future should be increased.
In just a few weeks, Sheffield United will play its away opener at Deepdale against Preston North End.
