Harry Gray claim emerges following Sheffield United link to Rotherham United's on-loan Leeds United forward
Sheffield United will reportedly eye players with more experience than Leeds United’s Harry Gray this summer.
At just 17, Gray is already getting to grips with senior football out on loan at Rotherham United.
Since being parachuted into the League One relegation battle in January, the forward has impressed across his 11 outings for the Millers.
Sheffield United have been credited with interest in taking him on loan next term, although it has now been suggested a swoop may not materialise.

According to The Star, it has been suggested by figures behind the scenes at Bramall Lane that Gray is not on the club’s radar,
It has been indicated there will be a focus on players with more experience than Gray, who does not turn 18 until October.
However, it hardly appears beyond the realm of possibility that Gray could head out on loan again next season.
A full season of regular minutes in the EFL could allow the marksman to continue on his remarkable upwards trajectory.
Prior to his move to Rotherham, Gray was reported to be of interest to a clutch of Championship clubs including Hull City, Derby County and Swansea City.
New role at Rotherham United
He is currently operating out on the left flank for Rotherham, with his versatility another string in his bow.
When asked by The Yorkshire Post earlier this month about Gray’s role change, Millers boss Matt Hamshaw said: “Harry can play in a number of roles.
“I just feel at this minute like [playing on the] left [and] coming inside is helping him a little bit.
“We're simplifying it a little bit. Sometimes, he's been through the middle, where big centre-halves just want to kick him. But I think he's getting that space on switches and transitions.”
