Wilder confident keeping hold of Sheffield Utd's best players

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder is confident keeping hold of his best players.

Wilder believes they can resist any big-money offers for their players.

“I'd think that 75 per cent of clubs in this division, and possibly more, in financial terms, could offer better deals," said Wilder.

“But I'd like to think the players would look a little bit deeper than that.

“We had a situation with David (Brooks) when we were in our second season in the Championship and a Premier League club came calling.

“Sometimes it's difficult when that happens, but we're now in a stronger position.

“We want to keep our best players. We want to continue building and I'm grateful to the board for their support in that."
