According to reporter Alan Nixon on his Patreon page, Sheffield United were interested in signing Ashley Phillips 12 months ago, but an agreement was not reached. Phillips is scheduled to return to Tottenham Hotspur for pre-season, and his immediate situation is uncertain. The Premier League club will need to make a decision regarding his future. This could provide Sheffield United with an opportunity to renew their interest in this transfer window. It is considered unlikely that Phillips will secure a place in Tottenham's starting team in the near future following Jan Paul van Hecke’s transfer from Brighton and Hove Albion, which makes another temporary move away from the club seem very likely. A temporary transfer to Sheffield United is described as the next logical step in Phillips's career after his time at Stoke City.
