Sheffield Utd announce five departures

Sheffield United have confirmed that five first-team players are leaving the club.

The Blades have been working behind the scenes to determine their squad for next season.

While they are set to push for automatic promotion back to the Premier League, relegation means some players have to leave.

The club have announced that Chris Basham, George Baldock, Oliver Norwood, Wes Foderingham and Max Lowe are all leaving.

The five will have tributes paid to them during the club’s final home game of the season against Tottenham on Sunday.

The Blades are set to finish bottom of the Premier League despite bringing back club legend Chris Wilder as manager at the start of the term.
