Sheffield United are looking to the future once more and are among the clubs battling for young forward player, Adam Berry.
Berry has left Manchester United and is on the lookout for a new club. The talented left-sided forward had been at Old Trafford since being a boy but has now left the club in search of a new challenge.
And according to Football Transfers, Sheffield United are among a host of clubs keen on landing the youngster.
It’s claimed that United, Celtic, Blackburn Rovers and Nottingham Forest are all keen on signing Berry, with Forest apparently holding a small advantage having already got Berry in on trial.
The 18-year-old was highly-regarded at Old Trafford but like so many at the club, pathways to the first team are hard to come by unless you’re a truly special talent.
Adam Berry could have a choice to make
For young players, Bramall Lane has always been seen as a good place to come and play football. Over the years, youngsters have been given their chances and the academy has enjoyed huge success.
In recent months, young players like Ryan One and Sam Curtis have chosen United over others, while the likes of Will Osula and Femi Seriki have penned fresh contracts to remain at the club.
For Adam Berry, it could simply come down to who he feels will give him that chance of developing into a first-team player quickly.
At Manchester United, the youngster caught the eye with some good performances and moments in the youth teams. Indeed, as an under-15, he scored from inside his own half.
For the Blades, landing players like Berry is important for the future of the club. United have already landed a former Man United player in the form of Zach Giggs, who is now progressing nicely in the youth ranks.
Berry, then, could well be tempted by the move to South Yorkshire.
