Richairo Zivkovic is set to stay with Sheffield United to the end of the season.

The Sheffield Star says reports in China suggest the country's football clubs, including Changchun Yatai who have loaned Richairo Zivkovic to Sheffield United, might not be allowed to recall their overseas players until October as part of a government measure designed to limit the spread of Covid-19.

Zivkovic, who moved to Bramall Lane in January, had been scheduled to return to the Far East when his temporary agreement expires at the end of the month.

The striker has yet to make an appearance, but arrived at United with a reputation for being a creative striker with explosive pace.

Previously of Ajax and Oostende, he has represented Holland at under-21 level while Retsos is a senior Greece international.
