Sheffield United are ready to sell fullback Kyle Naughton for £5 million.

The Mirror says Naughton is being sacrificed for their promotion play-off failure, with an auction now being started to give the board the cash they want.

Aston Villa, Bolton and Everton have all looked at Naughton and may make offers shortly. Insiders believe the Blades could even accept £2.5m plus add-ons.
