takeover talks

Sheffield United and Stoke City are both competing to sign Norwich City defender Sam McCallum. Sheffield United, preparing for their return to the Championship after a last-place finish in the Premier League, and Stoke City, who finished 17th last season, are keen on the 23-year-old left-back. McCallum played 29 Championship games for Norwich City last season and is set to become a free agent at the end of the month, making him an attractive target for both clubs. Despite financial constraints due to takeover talks, Sheffield United might still pursue McCallum if the terms are favorable.
