Tyler Morton, the Liverpool and England U21 midfielder, has emerged as a potential target for Sheffield United this summer. The Blades are reportedly exploring a loan deal to play alongside Oli Arblaster after Vini Souza left the club.
Morton impressed during his 2022–23 loan at Blackburn Rovers (3 goals, 5 assists in 40 Championship appearances), and followed that up with a strong 2023–24 season at Hull City, making 39 appearances and scoring three goals.
Despite also being linked with a permanent switch to West Ham, Morton brings versatility and a proven Championship record - ideal for Sheffield United’s midfield needs if it is a loan move Liverpool decide is best.

If Middlesbrough decide to cash in on Hayden Hackney this summer, they are expected to join Sheffield United in the race to sign Morton.

✅ Summary & Transfer Scenarios
Tyler Morton is on Sheffield United’s radar as they seek midfield reinforcements via loan. His Championship pedigree makes him an attractive option this summer.
Should Middlesbrough sell Hayden Hackney (valued around £15–20 m), their midfield needs would open up recruitment opportunities - Morton could be one name in their frame, especially given his U21 credentials.
