Blades boss Chris Wilder confirmed that Sheffield United are considering a second offer from Coventry City for Gustavo Hamer. The Championship side had rejected Coventry City's initial offer for Hamer, and an improved bid has now been submitted. Wilder stated that a bid has been made for Hamer and the owners are discussing it. It is reported that Hamer is keen on a return. United have stated that they will only approve a move on their terms. Hamer has one year remaining on his contract at Bramall Lane. Contract negotiations between United and Hamer have been discussed previously, but the midfielder has not committed to extending his stay. Wilder added that Hamer is ambitious. The manager also said there is an opportunity for a potential significant salary increase, a longer contract, and a move to a club where he is highly regarded. The manager said that Hamer might participate in contract talks if he were offered £100,000 per week, but also said the club will not offer him that amount.

Coventry City reportedly remain in talks with Sheffield United over a deal for midfielder Gustavo Hamer. According to Sky Sports News, Coventry are continuing to hold talks over a potential transfer, although they will need to overcome an obstacle. The two clubs are believed to be apart in their valuation of the player, who has entered the final 12 months of his Sheffield United contract. If Coventry can agree a fee with the Blades, there should be no further issues, as Hamer is keen to rejoin his former club to play Premier League football for the first time since the 2023-24 campaign.

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder admitted that while there has been interest in Gustavo Hamer, in his view, he is a Sheffield United player.

Sky Sports reported that Coventry City are close to agreeing a deal to re-sign Gustavo Hamer. United appear willing to listen to offers, and a return to the CBS Arena is now getting closer. However, there has been little indication from Hamer that a move is imminent. Hamer was training as normal on Friday as Sheffield United continued their preparations for a pre-season friendly on Saturday against German side Bochum, according to BBC Radio Sheffield’s Rob Staton. There has been no official indication from Sheffield United that Hamer will be withdrawn from the squad.

According to Sky Sports, Coventry City and Sheffield United have an agreement on a transfer fee for Gustavo Hamer. The report does not state the fee Coventry will pay. Hamer, 29, has a one-year contract with Sheffield United. He played for Coventry City from 2020 to 2023.

Sheffield United and Coventry City are close to agreeing a deal for the permanent transfer of midfielder Gustavo Hamer. According to Sky Sports, a deal between the Sky Blues and the Blades is close. Hamer is in the last year of his contract at Bramall Lane. Sheffield United have spoken with the midfielder over the possibility of a new deal, but there has been an expectation that he will be sold if a new agreement cannot be reached. Coventry City had held talks over a potential reunion. A sale is considered essential as the Blades cannot afford to let such a valuable asset's contract expire.

According to BBC’s Will Oelrich, Coventry City have held talks over a potential reunion with Sheffield United midfielder Gustavo Hamer. Hamer has seemed likely to leave Bramall Lane for some time. For the 29-year-old midfielder, a move would allow him another opportunity to play in the Premier League with the club that first brought him to England.

Coventry City could attempt to sign Sheffield United's 28-year-old Dutch-Brazilian player Gustavo Hamer in the summer, as they look to sign players capable of keeping them in the Premier League. According to former scout Mick Brown, Coventry are expected to attempt to sign Hamer. Mick Brown stated that Coventry would be looking at the best players in the Championship who might be able to step up to the Premier League with them. He said Hamer is among them and has shown that over a number of years. Brown also stated that they still rate him very highly at Coventry and the fans loved him when he was there, so a return would make sense for both parties. He expects it is something both parties will be interested in doing if it is possible, because Hamer has the quality at his best to make them a better team. The midfielder, who earns £30k-a-week, is expected to leave Sheffield United in the summer after three seasons at Bramall Lane, during which he scored 21 goals and provided 28 assists in 120 appearances. Hamer, who has been capped three times by the Netherlands at U20 level, is under contract until June 2027 and, according to Transfermarkt, has a current market value of €16.00m. Several other clubs, including Everton and Trabzonspor, have also been linked with the player. Reported valuations have varied; some reports in early 2026 suggested a fee as low as £6 million, while an April 2026 report mentioned a potential price of £15-£20 million.
