Brewster 'really close' to making Blades return

Sheffield United head coach Chris Wilder has said Rhian Brewster is "really close" to returning to first-team action after missing the Blades' last four matches.

The 24-year-old striker has only started three Championship games so far this season but after picking up a knock in the win at Blackburn Rovers, he could be involved in Friday night's home clash with Sunderland.

"Rhian's really close," Wilder told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"I said that on Tuesday night we have to make a really considered, sensible decision with Rhian considering his past injury record as well.

Friday's match comes too soon for Brewster's fellow forward Kieffer Moore, however, who is still unavailable due to a calf injury sustained in the match against Bristol City earlier this month.

"We don’t think Kieffer’s going to make it. He'll be one week," Wilder added.
