Sheffield United boss Kevin Blackwell has been impressed by trialists Glen Little and Julian Gray.
Former Reading winger Little, released by Portsmouth earlier this summer, and Gray, who left Fulham in July, both played for most of the 2-0 friendly win over Chesterfield at Saltergate.
Blackwell said: "They have been a credit while with us and I expect to make a decision on them by the end of the week, but of course they will be the first to know.
"In any event I'm hopeful of bringing three or four players in very soon."
