Ex-Blues Loanee Godfrey Set For Blades Wednesday, 20th Aug 2025 21:23 Former Blues loanee Ben Godfrey is set to join Sheffield United on loan from Atalanta.
Godfrey, 27, spent the second half of last season on loan with Town, making four starts and one sub appearance in a disappointing spell.
The one-time Everton and Norwich man could be back at Portman Road in a fortnight when the Blades visit Suffolk on Friday 12th September.

Another of our divisional rivals make a signing while we sign nobody. I’m sure there is lots of work going on to get players in but all we seem to do is miss out on targets and we desperately need more depth and quality. KMc thought this guy was premier league level just a few months ago (he was clearly wrong from what we saw) and I’m not saying he is what we need but why is it that we are struggling so much to make signings ? If we wait until the last few days of the window we will panic and overpay for players we don’t necessarily want. Look at last year when we got Jack Clarke at the last minute and how dreadful he has been since he arrived. Come on MA get the deals over the line please |  | |

Prebbs007 - "Another of our divisional rivals make a signing while we sign nobody...." You do know that we have signed six players so far in this transfer window right? Admittedly, David Button might not contribute much. If Sheffield United get the signing of Godfrey over the line, that will also bring them up to six signings too. |  | |

FullerFlavour no I had absolutely no idea we had made any signings. Be real. And it’s not really 6 as Jens was here last season and Button doesn’t count. I’m talking about the numerous players we have been (apparently chasing / bidding for) in the last fortnight while others sign players fairly readily it seems. Frustrating is it not ? We’ve lost a lot of match day squad regulars from last seasons premier league group and only brought in a few who could make a genuine impact. I’m worried that we might make poor decisions late in the window when MA told us that we would do business early. |  | |

You are complaining that we missed out on a right back (that we don't need) who was rubbish last season? I'm happy to wait for this Norwegian wonder kid A striker to replace Ali, and release Akpom to one of the no.10 slots (I hear mitrovic is looking for a club) We are after a CM too, maybe a Brownhill Then a lb on loan for the season, or a cb so that Greaves can cover lb. Job done |  | |

No Fermi. Read what I said. I defo don’t want Godfrey. You mention a lot of players/positions there that we are looking at. That’s my point. There’s a lot of looking without any signings and we need them right now as shown by our start to the season. A lucky point at Brum, a joke performance at Bromley and unable to win at home (although it was a slight improvement) |  | |

Prebbs007...So why did you claim we've signed nobody if you do know we have? |  | |
