Sheffield United Sold to US Consortium

Sheffield United owner Prince Abdullah has agreed to sell the club to a US consortium led by Steve Rosen for approximately £105 million, pending approval from the English Football League. The sale follows extensive negotiations and comes amid ongoing takeover discussions that have occurred over the past few seasons. Rosen is also set to acquire the hotel adjacent to Bramall Lane, and may attend the upcoming Steel City derby. Manager Chris Wilder has stated that the takeover talks have not distracted him from preparing the team for matches. The American-led consortium’s commitment could provide stability and potential growth for the club, which is currently in promotion contention in the Championship. The formal announcement of the takeover is expected soon, with Rosen signaling intentions to bolster the squad in the January transfer window.
