Sheffield United see Hamer Ahmedhodzic targeted by Wolves

Sheffield United duo Anel Ahmedhodzic and Gustavo Hamer are both wanted by Wolves, according to a report from The Sun.

Sheffield United are heading for the Championship after a dismal stay in the Premier League.

The Blades finished bottom of the table after a forgettable season. Now, they face a significant rebuild, with many out-of-contract players moving on and key men sure to be targeted by teams in the major leagues.

Among those tipped to earn moves back to a top flight are centre-back Anel Ahmedhodzic and star midfielder Gustavo Hamer. The two were among the few players who spent last season in a more positive light.

The Sun now claim that Wolves are after both Sheffield United stars.

Bosnia international Ahmedhodzic is on Gary O’Neil’s mind as a replacement for Max Kilman. Hamer, meanwhile, is on the radar after showing his top-flight skills in his first campaign since relegating the Championship to Coventry City.

Who is this?




THE QUIZ STARTS!

Inevitable exits?

Sheffield United are bound to lose some key players after returning to the Championship.

Sales will raise funds for further business, while allowing those good enough to return to a higher level. Ahmedhodzic and Hamer appear to be strong contenders to do just that, having proven themselves before in the second tier.

Centre-back Ahmedhodzic was instrumental in the Blades’ return to the Premier League under Paul Heckingbottom. Meanwhile, Hamer lit up the league with Coventry City and his move last summer was a well-deserved one.

The relegation of the Bramall Lane outfit will have clubs looking for the opportunity to re-sign their star men. Wolves appear to be the ones chasing a deal, although time will tell if their interest is cemented by an offer or a formal approach.

The window so far

The ongoing takeover saga at Sheffield United means signings have been at a premium. No cash additions have been made yet, with the two new players both arriving on free transfer offers.

Jamie Shackleton signed after his Leeds United contract was up, while Sam McCallum also joined from a Championship rival, leaving Norwich City at the end of last season.

Looks like targets are on the mind for later in the window. Players who will have to pay fees may have to wait until potential owners come on board.

However, it would be interesting to see if the sale of a key player like Ahmedhodzic or Hamer paved the way for those signings to be made under current ownership.
