Blades sign Croatia defender Uremovic



Sheffield United have completed the signing of Croatian international central defender Filip Uremovic.


He's signed on a deal initially until the end of the season, having recently had his contract with Russian side Rubin Kazan suspended.


Boss Paul Heckingbottom told the club's website: "Filip is someone our recruitment team know all about, they've watched him since he played for Croatia Under-21s, but financially he's always been out of the club's reach.


Unfortunately, because of the terrible situation between Ukraine and Russia, players have had contracts suspended and after someone contacted me about him, we spoke and thankfully he sees this as a great place to come and play in the short-term."
