Sheffield United is making a last-minute attempt to sign Leicester City’s Harry Souttar before the deadline tomorrow as they continue their search for a new central defender. Although names like Joe Worrall, Mason Holgate, and Ben Godfrey have been linked to the Blades, no deals have been finalized. Manager Chris Wilder is determined to bring in at least one new player before the deadline, with Souttar being a potential option, according to Football Insider. However, the Australian international is currently playing in the ASIA Cup and would not be available for immediate selection. Despite his limited playing time at Leicester, Souttar has an impressive international record, with ten goals in just over ten appearances. Sheffield United’s pursuit of a new defender has a hint of desperation, as they have waited until the final day of the transfer window to make significant progress. While the owner may be pleased, Wilder is left with a dilemma as he seeks to bolster his defensive line. The potential signing of Souttar, who is not currently in the country, raises doubts about the timing and logic of the move.
