Sheffield Utd boss Heckingbottom reveals Jebbison contract talks planned

Sheffield United boss Paul Heckingbottom says Daniel Jebbison is set to be offered a new deal.

The striker is interesting Aston Villa and Juventus.

“I haven't opened any talks with him, but of course we are in conversations," Heckingbottom told the Sheffield Star. “We have a lot of players who are in the last 12 months of their contract and we have to be mindful of that, of course we do. But with that comes an extra cost as well.

“It's not a naivety; this situation is because of problems, and we know that. We have to try and rectify that over time. We did our bit last season, with the promotion, to ease some of the pressures.

"They are still there but you still have to look at the long-term health of the club, which is really important."
