Sheffield United have confirmed the sale of David Carney to FC Twente. Blades boss Kevin Blackwell confirmed last night: "A fee has been agreed between the two clubs and David has sorted out his personal terms with Steve and passed a medical.

"Steve has been watching the lad for a while now, and is impressed with his ability to do a job in two or three positions. Because of the additions to the squad I have made this summer, we can afford to let the player move on."
