There is, however, a catch, as a further five unknown clubs (Aston Villa are likely to be one of them!), who have shown an interest in signing the forward.
The Blades have been busy in the transfer window, and have already completed the signings of Aaron Ramsdale (from AFC Bournemouth), Wes Foderingham (Glasgow Rangers), Jayden Bogle, Max Lowe (both Derby), and Ethan Ampadu (on loan from Chelsea). The Blades have also added defender Kacper Lopata to their Academy squad following his release from Brighton & Hove Albion.
United will be looking to add further additions to the squad, with the likelihood that West Brom’s Olver Burke will complete his move within the next 24 hours, with Callum Robinson heading in the other direction.
Blades boss Chris Wilder will be looking to add another striker to his squad, with Brewster looking like a likely target.
