Chris Wilder has confirmed that he has spoken to Liverpool regarding a deal to bring Rhian Brewster to Sheffield United. The young striker has been in demand this summer, with a whole host of clubs said to be vying for his signature following an impressive loan spell with Swansea City last season. Chris Wilder is looking to strengthen his forward line and Brewster’s name has long been in the frame.
Chris Wilder said “We have made enquiries about a few strikers and most on loan. Rhian is one we have talked about and spoken to Liverpool about. We need to bring another one in. We have looked at the situation of losing Lys as well for a little while and we need to find that quality from within and to add as well would make us stronger and a more complete group. As you understand it’s difficult to source and we are not in a situation to do what two or three other clubs have done or people might expect us to do. We will keep working hard and smart and we will keep going to fill that gap. We are looking to bring one in at the top of the pitch and that is still the case.”
