Sheffield United are putting the emphasis on their likely promotion push next term in an attempt to beat QPR in the race for Crystal Palace winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, according to journalist Alan Nixon.
The 21-year-old missed the bulk of the action last season with a hamstring injury, finishing with six Premier League appearances in a Crystal Palace shirt.
Now Crystal Palace are ready to let Rak-Sakyi head away on loan for the new season as they look for him to get a campaign of regular games under his belt.
Rak-Sakyi is wanted by a host of sides in the Championship, but QPR are putting in a big push.
The R’s trying seriously to sign the player and may even outbid their fellow Championship clubs.
Crystal Palace want the club signing Rak-Sakyi to cover the entire wage of the player and also pay a loan fee.
Sheffield United are also trying hard for Rak-Sakyi though.
The Blades will emphasise that moving to Bramall Lane could put the winger in the thick of a promotion battle.
It is suggested though that a loan fee could be an issue for Sheffield United as their takeover is still going through.
