Ben Woodburn: Liverpool forward joins Sheffield United on loan
Last updated on .From the section Sheff Utd

Championship side Sheffield United have signed Liverpool forward Ben Woodburn on a season-long loan deal.
The 18-year-old Wales international has scored one goal in 11 appearances for the Reds since making his first-team debut in November 2016.
"Ben is a great signing for us, he is an exciting player with undoubted quality," said Blades boss Chris Wilder on the club website.
"It's his first loan and I'm sure it will be a great one for all parties."
He added: "He's been involved with Liverpool throughout their pre-season and I'm delighted they've trusted us with one of their outstanding young prospects."
Woodburn, who is Liverpool's all-time youngest goalscorer - netting aged 17 years and 45 days against Leeds United in November 2016 - becomes the Blades' fourth signing of the summer transfer window.
He has won seven caps for Wales, scoring one goal.

Best of luck
Sheffield play the same formation as Wales too, so that bodes well.
Some gentle advice: If there's one thing that United and Wednesday fans agree on, it's that referring to either of our clubs as simply 'Sheffield' is incredibly irritating.
All the same, great a young Welsh player is getting plenty of game time. Good luck Ben & hope you do enough to get into LFC's squad next season.
Glad to see him going to a progressive side like SUFC to learn invaluable experience for the future
One for the future
Good luck Ben
The last few seasons, Chelsea have had nearly 40 (FORTY) players out on loan. They operate a shadow 'loan' squad of players just permanently out on loan while they are hoarded on their books. It is absolutely ridiculous. Liverpool aren't doing that.
Man City have feeder clubs in New York and Melbourne.
