All the latest news and transfer rumours surrounding Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday’s Championship rivals.

Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday are already hard at work as they prepare for the new season. The Blades have plenty of work to do to revamp their squad over the course of this summer, while the Owls will want to make more subtle additions to build on the momentum amassed towards the end of last season.

Danny Rohl has already made progress on that front, but plenty of work remains for both clubs before the season kicks off in August. In the meantime, we have rounded up all the latest news surrounding the rest of the Championship clubs.

Pardew on Summerville

Alan Pardew has been speaking about Leeds United star Crysencio Summerville, who has been heavily linked with a move away from Elland Road this summer. The former Newcastle United boss said on talkSPORT: “I had him at ADO Den Haag when he was there. We took him on loan. He was only like 16, 17. Such a lovely kid. He was like open. I had Alex Dyer assisting me, and we worked really hard with him to try and get him to understand what it really was in terms of men’s football at such a young age.

“A bit like Yamal at Barcelona. Took like a duck to water. No problem. He never feared anybody and he has brought that to Leeds. What he has is over a three kind of yard spell, he has acceleration that you just can’t stay with him. And he has the technique to beat people. Obviously, once he is gone, forget it, he is gone. It’s just really his final decision that’s going to be the crux for him in terms of reaching the real higher platforms of football. He is definitely a Premier League player for sure.
