Blades turn to the Brazilian way

Kevin Blackwell
Blackwell is embarking on his first full season in charge of the Blades

Sheffield United could include a number of Brazilian youngsters in their first-team squad next season.

Blades manager Kevin Blackwell has just returned from a fact-finding mission at associate club Sao Paulo and has been impressed with what he has seen.

"We are going through the players at Sao Paulo that fit the critique, both European passport wise and who can fit the English game," said Blackwell.

"There are one or two youngsters that we think can fit the bill."
