The move effectively ends Hussey's time at Bramall Lane, as the loan covers the entire 2017/18 EFL season and the left-back's Blades contract will expire after that.

Blades boss Chris Wilder said: "Chris goes to Swindon looking for some regular first-team football under a manager he knows. We wish him all the best."
