Listen, I think 19 years of age, very raw, lots to learn still, and, again, I think this might be ideal with the strikers that are there he can maybe learn off and work off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cBy all accounts, he\u2019s got lots of ability, and he comes from good stock. So I think, yes, they probably don\u2019t really need a striker, but sometimes, you know, you look at the future and you look at long-term plans of where and how some of these youngsters can sort of find their way. It might be that he has a season of dipping in and out, playing in cup competitions, and maybe going out on loan at some stage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/sheffield-united\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Sheffield United<\/a>\u00a0eye Malmo attacker Daniel Gudjohnsen<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/sheffield-united\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Sheffield United<\/a>\u00a0could see Gudjohnsen as someone to boost their attacking department.
