Sheffield United boss Paul Heckingbottom is eager for more signings this month.

Heckingbottom was speaking after victory over Stuttgart.

He said, “Yeah. We've been close on one for a while.

"But we need more than that. I think there are plenty of areas on the pitch where we need bodies and why we want them. It's always an issue with loans because when you're looking for good loans they come out towards the end and that's the problem. We've got to be patient.

“There is so much work to do and the unfortunate thing for us is that the season is just a few days away. We've got to work really hard."
