Leeds ‘could seal summer signing’ with win at Sheffield United
Leeds United have a crucial clash with Sheffield United tonight, but the potential rewards could stretch far further than just a win.
Following on from their late 2-1 comeback against Sunderland, the Whites travel to Bramall Lane (24 February) to face the Blades in what has the potential to be a title decider.
Sheffield United will provide another stern test for Leeds with both sides on a remarkable run of form that sees the duo competing for the top spot in the Championship.
A win for Leeds could all but secure promotion, though it may also have potential future benefits heading into the summer transfer window.

Gus Hamer’s future could depend on Sheffield United v Leeds result
One player who has always been in the spotlight throughout these encounters is Gus Hamer, with the Dutchman having impressed throughout the campaign after Leeds missed out on his signing.
However, it is believed that Leeds still hold an interest in signing Hamer though any potential deal would likely hinge on which division both he and the Whites are playing in next season.
2024/25 season | Appearances | Goals | Assists | Chances created |
Gus Hamer | 29 | 7 | 5 | 52 |
As it stands, Leeds look almost nailed on for promotion but that could change if Daniel Farke’s side suffers defeat at Bramall Lane.
With Burnley four points behind and Sheffield United just a win away from dethroning the Peacocks at the summit of the Championship, the stakes of the game are huge.
If Leeds can secure all three points, it would see Sheffield United take a hit in their promotion bid, which in turn could increase the chances of seeing Hamer in a Leeds shirt.

Leeds can put one foot in the Premier League with win
The clash at Bramall Lane has the potential to be the biggest one yet for Leeds given the rewards that are up for grabs.
Farke’s side have had an excellent campaign but with many twists and turns still to come, promotion isn’t quite there yet and tonight’s result will paint a clear picture as to how that will pan out.
Leeds will need to be at their best to get something out of Chris Wilder’s side, but with the level of quality in their ranks, they should have more than enough to get all three points.
