It's all Greek to United

Sheffield United have agreed a financial deal to take Greek midfielder Stelios Giannakopoulos on loan from Bolton Wanderers until the end of the season.

But manager Bryan Robson has yet to tie up an agreement with the player - and it is possible he may not want to drop down to the Championship.

The 33-year-old Premiership player was reportedly interested in a move after Sam Allardyce left the club.

But it remains to be seen if Bramall Lane ticks all his boxes.

The Blades are desperate for some midfield support, because of injuries.

Allardyce described him as: "an attacking midfielder who knows how to score goals. His main attribute remains his ability to make late runs into the penalty area and his flair to shoot accurately from range."
