Sheffield United have agreed a deal with Coventry City for the transfer of Gustavo Hamer, bringing an end to the Dutchman's three-year spell at Bramall Lane.
The midfielder is set to return to Coventry in a deal worth £6 million plus add-ons, with a medical scheduled to take place today as the transfer moves towards completion, per Sky Sports. The Blades are now preparing to lose one of the most influential attacking players in their squad just days before the start of their Championship campaign.
Hamer missed Sheffield United's trip to Mansfield Town in the EFL Cup on Sunday afternoon, with his absence immediately raising further questions over his future. United, however, were able to put his omission to one side as they made the short journey to Nottinghamshire and secured an impressive 3-0 victory.
The result ensured that Chris Wilder's side progressed, but attention away from the pitch quickly turned towards Hamer and his increasingly likely departure. Now, a deal has been agreed that will see the 29-year-old head back to Coventry, where he previously established himself as one of the Championship's most exciting midfielders.
For Sheffield United, replacing Hamer will be no straightforward task. During his three seasons at Bramall Lane, the Dutchman has more than justified the price tag the Blades paid to bring him to South Yorkshire in 2023. Across all competitions, Hamer has scored 21 goals and registered 26 ****** ists for United, giving him a remarkable total of 47 goal involvements during his time at the club.
