Under Chris Wilder, Sheffield United is having a great season in the Championship this year, and the Steel City team hopes to make a quick return to the Premier League.
It was an interesting season because of the situation at Bramall Lane seven months ago. The Blades started their second-tier comeback with a two-point deficit that was quickly erased, and they spent most of the season in the running for promotion alongside Leeds United, Burnley, and Sunderland.
The reported £111 million buyout of COH Sports in December, which opened the door for high-profile January arrivals like Tom Cannon and the loan return of Ben Brereton Diaz, gave United supporters even more cause for celebration.
There is plenty of quality in all sections of Wilder’s squad as the season enters its climax, with plenty of significant decisions also likely to be made in the coming weeks and months, and ones which could rely on which league the club participates in next term.
While Harry Clarke, Hamza Choudhury, Rob Holding, Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, and Alfie Gilchrist will return to their parent clubs in June, this could also affect whether the Blades manager decides to make the aforementioned Chilean international’s second loan move to S2 permanent.
Having said that, FLW considers if new terms are necessary for individuals who are now out of contract in South Yorkshire at the end of the current campaign.
