The Sheffield United youngster is following in the footsteps of Blades teammate David Brooks.
Promising Sheffield United defender Sam Graham has followed in the footsteps of David Brooks, joining FC Halifax Town on loan.
Graham’s deal – which was announced by Halifax, although, strangely, not by United on Saturday – will run until the end of the campaign, offering the 17-year-old a first taste of senior football.
And he has already made his bow for the side from West Yorkshire, coming on for the final 37 minutes of a 0-0 draw with Solihull Moors – just hours after signing.
Brooks made the same move two seasons ago, and appeared five times for the Shaymen before returning to Bramall Lane, where he is enjoying a breakthrough campaign.
And like the attacking midfielder, Graham is said to have interest from the Premier League, with Everton keen according to the Liverpool Echo.
However, Sheffield United will hope that he too can make an impression first at Bramall Lane, if he is to be prised away.
Can Graham break into the Blades’ first team next season?
