Enda Stevens is on the hunt for a new club after Sheffield United confirmed he will be leaving this summer.
The Ireland international made over 200 appearances for the promoted Blades but won’t be part of their Premier League campaign next season.
Stevens, 32, played a peripheral role this season with just 13 appearances after being hit by various injury setbacks.

He only made two appearances since featuring in an FA Cup clash in January, and they came in the last two games of the season.
Sheffield United published their ‘retained list’ ahead of their Premier League return with Stevens, Jack O’Connell and Billy Sharp the notable absentees.
The club said the trio would be given “the send offs they deserve having written themselves into the history of the club with their exploits on the field in red and white.”
On Stevens, the Blades said in a statement: “He leaves with a lasting legacy, having been signed by Chris Wilder in May 2017 on a free transfer from Portsmouth.
“The Republic of Ireland international scored four crucial goals during the promotion run-in in 2018/19.
“And he clocked up 40 appearances in the Premier League in the following season.
“The 32-year-old exits having amassed over 200 outings in red and white, including 13 last season.”
Capped 25 times, Stevens is not part of Ireland’s 25-man squad for the upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers against Greece and Gibraltar.
Sheffield United secured promotion to the top flight after finishing second in the Championship, 10 points behind runaway winners Burnley.
