Sheffield United have dropped their interest in former Aberdeen player Charlie Mulgrew, who now appears to be on his way to Celtic. The 24 year old is available on a free, but the Blades pulled out of a move because of the player's wage demands.

"Charlie Mulgrew is one we did speak to. We couldn't agree terms, so we move on," said Blades boss Kevin Blackwell.

"Players these days think they can come in and play for x, y and z. We need a bit of realism."
