Sheffield United have agreed an £18million deal for Aston Villa forward Cameron Archer.

Archer was part of the squad as England Under-21s won the European Championship for that age group this year.

The Blades also remain in talks over a loan deal for Manchester United winger Facundo Pellistri.

Pellistri has featured as a substitute for Erik ten Hag's side in their first two Premier League games of the season.

The Uruguay international is seen as an exciting prospect and Sheffield United feel that he would be a useful addition to their squad.
