Blades eye winger

The Blades are taking a look at Manchester United winger Zach Giggs on trial, as per a report by the Daily Mail. The 16-year-old is the son of Old Trafford favourite Ryan. He is not expected to be offered a deal by the Premier League giants and is will become available for transfer.

Hull City man wants to stay

Hull City defender Alfie Jones is keen to extend his stay with the East Yorkshire club. He has formed a solid partnership in defence alongside Sean McLoughlin over recent times but his contract expires in late June. The centre-back has told Hull Live: “I’m enjoying my time here and I’d like to extend it here but we’ll have to wait and see what happens. It is sometimes (hard not knowing what will happen), but at the end of the day, it’s my job to perform on the pitch.”
