Sheffield Utd boss Wilder admits transfer interest for Fleck

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder admits there's been transfer interest in John Fleck.

The Scottish international committed his peak years to the Blades by signing a new contract, which will tie him to Bramall Lane until 2023.

Wilder revealed, “He's been wanted elsewhere but he doesn't want to go elsewhere.

“And I don't believe any of the lads want to. Why would you?

“John's integral to what we're doing here. He's been outstanding too. Sander [Berge] was good against Brighton too – he's a young boy with pressure on him and he's played in three decent results for us now.

“We've got a good group. I'm sure the others will commit – there's no reason to think they won't – and John's been on the journey with us. We think there's still a bit left on that journey, for him and us."
