Sheffield United have lodged a bid for Reading FC star John Swift, the Reading Chronicle understands.
The Blades have joined Leeds United in the hunt for Swift and have lodged a bid in an attempt to lure the playmaker away from the Madejski Stadium.
Swift joined Reading on a free transfer in 2016 and his current contract expires in 2022.
He has been directly involved in 15 goals for Reading this season - finding the back of the net five times and providing ten assists in the league so far this year.
