Sheffield Utd boss Heckingbottom delighted landing Man City youngster Doyle

Sheffield United manager Paul Heckingbottom believes Tommy Doyle can thrive at Bramall Lane next season.

The Manchester City midfielder has moved to Yorkshire on a season-long loan.

"We are pleased to attract a player who has a lot of experience for his age," Heckingbottom said.

"He's already had a couple of good loans, has been around the first team at Manchester City as well playing for England.

"We think he can add a lot of quality to our midfield. He can play in a couple of positions whether we play as a two or a three and tactically he is very good.

"We are confident he will fit into our group very well. He's got the knowledge of how we want to play."
