​Sheffield Utd eyeing move for Sheffield Wed star Forestieri

Sheffield United are being linked with a shock move for Sheffield Wednesday star Fernando Forestieri.

The two city rivals are not inclined to entertain transfers between each other.

But The Sun suggests that Chris Wilder, who is in charge at Sheffield United, is a huge fan of Forestieri.

It appears the club will attempt to sign the 29-year-old, especially as they have gained promotion to the Premier League.

The Sun also suggests that a deal is possible, but only if United pay a massive fee of £14 million for the player.

Forestieri managed six goals in 25 league games this season.
