Sheffield United are reportedly pursuing a sensational free transfer for Bayern Munich legend Franck Ribery. The 36-year-old French winger is a free agent after leaving the Bundesliga giants at the end of last season.
According to German outlet Kicker, newly-promoted Sheffield United are interested in bringing Ribery to Bramall Lane. The Blades, who finished second in the Championship last season, are aiming to secure Premier League survival in their first top-flight campaign in 12 years.
Ribery spent 12 seasons with Bayern Munich, winning 22 titles including multiple Bundesliga and German Cup trophies. His experience and winning mentality could be invaluable for Chris Wilder's squad, particularly in adding goals and creativity to the attack.
Signing Ribery would be a major statement of intent for Sheffield United, bringing star quality to the team as they prepare for the challenges of the Premier League.
