Sheffield Utd sign Man City's Kean Bryan

Championship side Sheffield United have completed the signing of Manchester City defender Kean Bryan on a free transfer.

August 2, 2018

The 21-year-old has signed a three-year deal with the 'Blades.'

City, who allowed Bryan to leave on a free transfer, included a sell-on clause in the negotiations meaning that they will get a percentage of the next transfer fee. 

Bryan was close to joining Scottish side Rangers, but the move fell through.

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder told the club website: 

"It’s a fantastic deal for us, Kean is naturally left-footed, he can play left centre-half, left-back and in midfield and he is a very good technical player we think we can develop."

"He played over 30 games at Oldham which will have aided his development and it’s important that we’ve kept the squad balanced with permanent signings and loans."
