QPR defender Kane: Chelsea wrecked my Sheffield Utd move

QPR defender Todd Kane says he should be playing for Sheffield United if not for former club Chelsea's tardiness.

Chelsea failed to sign the necessary paperwork in time for him to sign for Sheffield United – missing the January 2019 transfer deadline.

He told The Sun: “I was at Hull on loan and Chris Wilder had been talking to me on the phone about me going there.

“It had all been agreed but Chelsea submitted the paperwork too late because they were busy getting the Gonzalo Higuaín loan from Juventus across the line first.

“I'd have been part of the Sheffield United team that got promoted and could've been playing Premier League football there now."
