Sheffield Utd boss Wilder makes clear Bogle plans

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder has been discussing the club's plans for next season.

Among other topics, Wilder dropped his clearest hint yet that Jayden Bogle will be with the club in the future.

The defender has been a consistent performer this season, but is out of contract in the summer.

Asked if the 23-year-old is likely to stay, Wilder replied: “Yes, hopefully. He's been outstanding. We knew a lot about him when we brought him into the building, him and Max [Lowe].

“It was arguably one of the club's best deals, in terms of the numbers. I think it ended up being under £4 million for both of them. So to get a player who's the highest scorer in the Premier League for us as a defender is great and his overall performances this year have been outstanding. It [his future] is something that will really take care of itself.

“His attitude around the place and his performances have been first-class. I said a few weeks back, no-one's getting after him or Ollie Arblaster. He's got on with his job and he's locked down that position. He's been outstanding."
