Sheffield United’s Regan Slater has returned to training this week – the midfielder is wanted by all of Charlton Athletic, Hull City and Presto North End.
Slater, 21, spent last season on loan with Hull City in League One. He made 27 league outings and scored one goal for Hull City as they romped to the League One title, securing an immediate return to the Championship under Grant McCann.
Since, they’ve been linked with a permanent move for Slater and now a report from Hull Live claims that the Tigers ‘have an offer on the table’ to make his previous loan stay permanent.
The report also goes on to claim how Slater’s ‘preference is understood to be a return to the Tigers’ should he be moving on this summer, but that remaining at Bramall Lane and breaking into Slavisa Jokanovic’s first-team next season is his ‘main target’.
Hull though face competition from Charlton Athletic and Preston North End. The pair have been recently linked with a summer move for Slater but Hull seemingly have the upper-hand, given their Championship status and their previous ties with Slater.
Thoughts?
Sheffield United boss Jokanovic will today begin work at Bramall Lane after seeing through his contract with Al-Gharafa, so we should soon know where Slater stands in the Serb’s 2021/22 plans.
A move to Hull would be a really exciting one for both Slater and for the club a they gear up for the Championship but with Charlton and Preston lingering, this transfer chase could yet take a few turns.
