Lee Martin wanted back by Sheffield Utd

Kelvin · 1st August 2008, 16:16

Sheffield United boss Kevin Blackwell is still hopeful of bringing Manchester United winger Lee Martin back to the club.

The 21-year-old made six appearances during a loan spell with the Blades last season and has featured for the Red Devils during their pre-season tour of South Africa this summer.

Having signed right winger David Cotterill from Wigan already this summer, Blackwell is keen to give himself a similar option down the opposite flank.

"We already have the likes of Stephen Quinn and Chris Armstrong who can play wide and lock things up to balance things out in that way but we might need someone who can provide something different," Blackwell told the club's official website.

"There is a possibility that we might still be able to do something with Lee and have asked Sir Alex to keep us informed.

"Lee has said he would like to come back because he enjoyed his time here - as did the other lads who came on loan last season - which is a good mark for this club."

£800k will do.

I think we should try to get at least as much as we paid for him, £1m

Think it was up to £1m based on apperances and stuff, and he hasn't made any.
