EFL Championship outfit Sheffield United are eyeing a swoop for young Manchester United defender Charlie Scott.

The Blades have done transfer business with United this week when they snapped up James Wilson and he could be joined at Bramall Lane by his U23 teammate.

Sheffield United manager observed Scott at close quarters as the U23 team were beaten 3-0 by Aston Villa in a Premier League Cup clash at Keys Park on Thursday evening.

The Stoke born talent has figured in five matches for United's U23 team in the Premier League 2 this season.

Charlie Scott can operated in central defense, in midfield or at right-back.

The versatile defender was offered a fresh Manchester United contract at the end of last season.
