Sheffield Utd have deal for Preston striker Callum Robinson

Sheffield United are closing a deal for Preston North End striker Callum Robinson.

Blades boss Chris Wilder wants at least two forwards this summer and has moved for Robinson, who was Preston's top scorer last season with 13 goals.

A fee of £6m has been agreed, says the Mirror.

Robinson, 24, also contributed three assists, despite the former Aston Villa trainee missing four months of the campaign through injury.

United have signed Luke Freeman from QPR for an initial £6million.

They are also in talks to buy Ben Osborn from Nottingham Forest and re-sign England Under-21 goalkeeper Dean Henderson on loan again from Manchester United.
