Sheffield United are determined to keep hold of Ismaila Coulibaly this summer.

The Examiner says they plan to do all they can to hang on to Coulibaly during a summer that could well see a lot of interest in the midfielder.

The Mali under 20 international is currently on loan at Beerschot in Belgium, which is part-owned by Prince Abdullah and one of five clubs in the United World umbrella.

Signed for just under £2million from Norwegian side Sarpsborg in the summer, he was sent on a three-year loan to United's sister club in order for him to gain the necessary visa requirements.

The Blades were forced to knock back a bid of just short of £10m from AC Milan earlier in the season and have also had enquiries from Galatasaray.
