It has been revealed that Birmingham City are one of the sides who are trying to sign Peterborough United star Harrison Burrows along with Preston North End and Sheffield United.
According to transfer insider Darren Witcoop, Sheffield United have had an offer tabled for a while for the 22-year-old, but due to the takeover situation it has meant that the Blades have stalled negotiations until the ownership issue has been resolved. This has prompted both Birmingham City, Preston and one other unnamed club to jump in the mix.
The Blues reportedly have a budget of £20 million at their disposal to try and get out of League One at the first time of asking, so they have plenty of money to acquire the talented left-back.
Sheffield United must not lose out on Harrison Burrows
The young left-wingback has played at least 37 times in each of his last three league campaigns, accumulating an impressive 24 assists and 13 goals during this period. His creative abilities are clear, as he ranks in the 97th percentile for assists per 90 minutes among League One full-backs. Additionally, he excels in distribution, standing in the 96th percentile for key passes per game, 94th for crosses per game, and 99th for progressive passes per game. Offensively, he is a consistent threat, ranking in the 84th percentile for touches within the opposition penalty area, 85th for shots taken per 90 minutes, and 81st for goals per game from a full-back position.
