Hamer, who was named the Championship Player of the Year, is expected to leave Sheffield United after their play-off final heartbreak, with Leeds and Everton both keen on signing the 28-year-old.
Leeds had previously attempted to sign Hamer in the summer of 2024, submitting a £13 million bid that was swiftly rejected by Sheffield United. The Blades deemed the offer “a million miles away” from their valuation, with manager Chris Wilder emphasizing that Hamer was not for sale to a direct promotion rival.
Despite the earlier setback, Leeds’ chairman, Paraag Marathe, has expressed a strong intent to invest heavily in the squad this summer. With Hamer’s contract situation and Sheffield United’s current position, Leeds could now have a clearer path to secure the midfielder’s services.
Hamer’s potential move to Leeds United would be a significant development, adding depth and creativity to their midfield as they prepare for the challenges of the Premier League.
