Prince Abdullah’s vision for the future of Sheffield United has been revealed in a recent report about the club’s finances. The accounts for the 2019-20 season were published last week and among the items included was the board’s mission statement. This will be achieved by ‘investing in our playing squad, through first team acquisitions and our elite academy programme’
