Sheffield Utd boss Chris Wilder admits Freeman deal close

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder has confirmed they're close to signing QPR midfielder Luke Freeman.

Wilder is set to make Freeman his first summer signing and United are close to agreeing a fee of around £3.5million plus add-ons for the midfielder.

Wilder believes Freeman can make the step up to the Premier League after scoring eight goals and making six assists last season with Rangers.

He said: “The clubs are pretty close.

"It should be done, we think. We're looking at players with a point to prove."
