The English Football League has signed off for the summer as attention turns to the international game and the most watched sporting event on the planet: the FIFA World Cup in North America.
It’s a tournament which will be watched by fans throughout in bars and venues throughout the city, with many putting their United and Wednesday rivalries aside for a brief fleeting moment to unite with the hope of cheering England on to their first piece of silverware since 1966.
However, it’s not just the Three Lions matches that Blades and Owls fans will keep an eye on with members from both squads jetting off to get involved at North America - along with a whole host of familar faces from years gone by.
With all that in mind, we’ve decided to compile a list of Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday stars past and present that are set to compete on the world stage - as well as a few slightly less obvious links to the clubs.

This one is a bit of a stretch, but once upon a time a young Harry Kane,during a loan spell at Leyton Orient, scored his first professional goal against Sheffield Wednesday. It's fair to say he's not done too bad since then. | Getty Images
