Celtic and Everton are among the clubs being credited with an interest in the young Sheffield United striker.
Sheffield United fans are reacting to news that the Celtic and Everton-linked striker David Parkhouse has rejected a new deal at Bramall Lane.
Parkhouse scored 19 goals for Derry City last season and is said to have interest from Celtic, Everton and Blackburn Rovers ahead of his contract expiring next summer.
After reports that he had snubbed the Blades’ offer, the 20-year-old confirmed the news to the Derry Journal earlier this week.
And this is what the Sheffield United faithful are saying on Twitter…
Sheffield United are likely to favour an English move for Parkhouse, for whom they would be entitled to more compensation than if he were to leave the country – e.g. join Celtic.
The player’s comments do, however, suggest he will sign for the club at which first-team opportunities are most readily available – potentially ruling out Everton and increasing Blackburn’s chances.
The Northern Irishman joined Sheffield United from Maiden City in 2016 but has yet to make a competitive appearance for the Blades.
Celtic, Everton, Blackburn or neither – where will Parkhouse end up?
