West Brom starlet completes move as Sheffield United 'agree' bargain transfer deal

As Sheffield United nears a great lot, a young West Brom player has departed the team. The group stage of Euro 2024 is now complete, and the knockout stages are quickly approaching. In the competition’s round of sixteen, Slovakia will play England; but what’s going on locally around the Hawthorns Stadium today?

A young player for West Brom has reached an agreement to quit the team and sign with a League One team during the summer transfer window. Going to better pastures makes sense in this case, given his playing time with the Baggies had become restricted and primarily consisted of loan moves away.

In other news, Sheffield United is reportedly in negotiations to sign a 24-year-old on a free transfer from Leeds United. It will probably be a gloomy occasion for Whites supporters, since he has been at Leeds since 2006. However, his playing time at Elland Road had significantly decreased over time.

Zac Ashworth leaves West Brom to join Blackpool

According to the Baggies website, Zac Ashworth has formally left West Brom to sign a permanent contract with Blackpool in League One for an unknown transfer price. He declares that he is “over the moon” about joining the Seasiders.

Ashworth played much of the previous season on loan at Bolton Wanderers. With 16 league appearances, two goals, and two assists, he contributed to the Trotters’ run to the League One playoff final.

In an interview that was posted on Blackpool’s official website upon his arrival, Ashworth stated, “I’m over the moon to be here and really excited for what’s to come.”

“Blackpool is a huge club, and this is a fantastic chance for a new beginning.” The gaffer played a major role in the decision. I genuinely wanted to play for him and the squad after we spoke and he told me what he thought I could bring to the table. Everyone has made me feel very welcome, and I’m excited to start working with Tangerine and meet the guys in training this week.

Sheffield United ‘agree deal’ to sign Leeds United’s Jamie Shackleton on a free transfer

It is rumoured that Sheffield United and Leeds United, one of their rivals in Yorkshire, have reached an agreement for Sheffield United to sign Jamie Shackleton for nothing. This is based on a story from Football Insider, which mentions that Shackleton might have a free move because his Leeds contract was set to expire at the end of the month.

Last season, the 24-year-old appeared in eleven Championship games for the White, recording one assist. It seems sensible for everyone concerned for him to start again somewhere new, as he had essentially become an incidental member of the team at this point.

While Leeds is trying to get back together after losing to Southampton in the Championship playoff final, the Blades are aiming to rebuild following a terrible Premier League season that resulted in relegation. Who else will the Blades try to sign before the deadline, and who else will Chris Wilder, the manager of United, want to sign before Shackleton?
