Aston Villa attacker Cameron Archer is poised to join Sheffield United for £18 million, according to talkSPORT. The young Villa sensation will join the Blades on a permanent deal.

However, Aston Villa have ensured a safety net with a buyback option, allowing them to reclaim their academy graduate. Burnley used the same method to sign Aaron Ramsey yesterday.

Sheffield United, whose frontline was dealt a blow with the departure of Iliman Ndiaye to Marseille earlier in the transfer window, are now on the brink of securing Archer’s services as his replacement.

While Villa greenlit the move to balance their books after spending heavily this summer, there’s an air of anticipation around whether the club will actively seek a replacement for the young forward before the transfer window slams shut.

Archer earned his stripes through the ranks at Bodymoor Heath but has also demonstrated his prowess on the international stage.

This summer, he was pivotal to England’s Under-21 success at the European Championship.

Having honed his skills during a loan stint at Solihull Moors in the 2020/21 season, where he netted four goals in 21 appearances, Archer further made his name during his tenure at Preston, etching his name into the spotlight with seven goals across 20 Championship outings.

Further enhancing his reputation, the 21-year-old went on loan to Middlesbrough last season.

His impact was remarkable, helping the team to the precipice of promotion with 11 goals and six assists in 23 appearances.

With Premier League football now beckoning, Cameron Archer stands on the brink of an exciting chapter in his career.

The move to Bramall Lane promises a platform for the young forward to etch his name onto the annals of top-tier English football.

All eyes are set on Archer’s journey as he looks to seize the opportunity and make his mark on English football.
