Sheffield United manager Slavisa Jokanovic has been asked about the need to offload players in January in an interview with Yorkshire Live.

Sheffield United are looking to bring in two wingers and a defensive midfielder according to the report, but they may need to sell a couple if they are to spend in January.

There has been speculation surrounding the likes of Lys Mousset, Rhian Brewster, Chris Basham and Oliver Burke in recent weeks.

“In general I am thinking more about adding the players we need than selling anyone. It depends on the market and different situations,” he said.

He revealed that there haven’t been any bids for any of his players as of yet.

“The possibility always exists but we don’t have any offers coming to me or any information that people want to pay some money for my players.

“I am not thinking about selling players. I need to find some buyers to sell players.”

There will likely be speculation in the next couple of months before and during the January transfer window, both for incomings and outgoings at Bramall Lane.

Basham and Burke played under Wilder when he was in charge at Sheffield United and the new Middlesbrough boss is reportedly keen on the duo.
