Players must be shipped out before Sheff Utd can strengthen

Sheffield United boss Danny Wilson is aware any new singings will have to be financed by players leaving the club this summer. The Blades have signed defender Jean-Francois Lescinel from Swindon and striker Danny Philliskirk following his release by Chelsea, while Darius Henderson has been sold to Millwall for an undisclosed fee.

Wilson said: "We're still working on things and we have been for many days now, but we're still in limbo in many respects because we don't know about the outgoings."

He added: "Darius leaving has of course helped to make things slightly easier, but not to the degree of everything is now okay.

"We've still got a long way to go, but Darius moving on has eased things for the club financially.

"We've had one or two clubs sniffing around a couple of other players, but there's nothing concrete at all and I don't expect anything in the next week or so."
