Turkish Super Lig club Trabzonspor are now \u2018officially in the race\u2019 for Sheffield United<\/a> star Gustavo Hamer, who they will be making \u2018an offer\u2019 for in the coming days.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Brazil-born talent started his youth career at Dutch giants Feyenoord and played 50 senior games for PEC Zwolle before Coventry City snapped him up.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

He impressed in his three-year spell at the Sky Blues, with 19 goals and 19 assists in 132 appearances for the Championship<\/a> outfit.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Back in the summer of 2023, the Blades paid a hefty \u00a315m for the creative Dutchman, and he has been a top player for them.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hamer attracted top-flight interest in 2024\u2019s summer window, as Wolves<\/a> were credited with an interest in the ex-Netherlands youth international, but those links were played down<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Leeds United also wanted Hamer, and one former EFL star stressed that the Whites wanted him \u2018badly\u2019<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

His performances at the Blades have been impressive, which earned him the Championship\u2019s Player of the Season award last term.<\/p>\n

Hamer\u2019s current contract runs until the summer of 2027 and he is attracting genuine transfer interest in the ongoing winter window.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Turkish journalist Safa Can Konuksever<\/a>, Turkish side Trabzonspor are \u2018officially in the race\u2019 to sign the Blades star.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

It has been suggested that the Black Sea Storm will be \u2018making an offer\u2019 to the Championship side this month.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last summer, Eredivisie outfit PSV Eindhoven wanted to sign Hamer<\/a>, while Trabzonspor also held an interest then too.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

It is unclear what level of offer Trabzonspor are looking to make and whether Hamer wants to quit the Blades to head to Turkey.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trabzonspor have a number of former Premier League players on the books and it remains to be seen if Hamer will soon be joining the group.<\/p>\n
