SHEFFIELD UNITED are offering a stunning £17million for Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster.
And they are even willing to let him go back to the Kop.

Boss Chris Wilder came up with a new improved bid for the Anfield hitman, 20, today after his blunt Blades went three games without a goal.
And the United chiefs are even willing to agree to Liverpool’s request for a buy back clause – set at around £40m – for the young forward.
It could be a crucial move as major transfer rivals Crystal Palace will not agree to the arrangement that would see Liverpool having a chance to take the player back in the future.
Palace are prepared to OUTBID Sheffield United right now.
And they know that Brewster is keen on a move to London.
However the Eagles are unhappy with the idea of grooming Brewster for the top and then losing him.
Palace may now switch their striker hunt to Celtic’s Odsonne Edouard.
He was a target earlier in the year but was out of their price range.
That fee may now be reducing as the 22-year-old struggles for form – although Hoops manager Neil Lennon insists his star is happy at Parkhead.
