Fathi completes move to Sheff Utd
Sheff Utd boss Neil Warnock
Warnock is trying to mastermind Sheff Utd's survival
Sheffield United boss Neil Warnock has completed the signing of Egypt international Ahmed Fathi.

The 22-year-old midfielder becomes Warnock's fifth capture in 11 days and has been playing for club side Ismaily.

"He's 22 and is a nice type of lad who knows what the English game is all about," said Warnock.

"He'll get stuck in, has an eye for a pass, can score a few goals as well, although I'm not going to expect too much of him."

Warnock added: "You don't know how quick players will settle in when they come from abroad.

"But he's coming to the club at the right time. He'll be a good acquisition to the squad because we do need another midfielder."
