Sheffield United have signed former Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford on a short-term deal until January, with the club struggling to stay afloat in mid-table Championship position. The 32-year-old was released by Leeds United after being out of form last season and has already played for several teams during his career.
Bamford is coming off the back of a dismal start to the season for Sheffield United, who are currently three points from safety. With only six wins in their first 15 games, they will be looking to Bamford's goal-scoring prowess to help turn their fortunes around.
The former Leeds United forward has a rich history with the club, winning promotion to the Premier League twice and scoring 56 goals in 192 league appearances. However, last season saw him fail to score in 18 appearances across all competitions.
Bamford will likely be welcomed back to Bramall Lane, where he played for several years during his time at Leeds United. The Sheffield derby on Sunday, November 23rd could provide the perfect opportunity for Bamford to make an instant impact and help turn the season around for the struggling Blades.
