Heckingbottom, who has been placed in temporary charge at Bramall Lane until the end of the season following Chris Wilder’s departure, was predecessor to Marcelo Bielsa at the Whites after a successful spell in charge of Barnsley.

The rock-bottom Blades have lost both matches since he took charge, but put in an improved performance last time out against Chelsea, following a 5-0 drubbing at the hands of Leicester City the day after Wilder officially left the club.
