Sheffield United fans have taken to Twitter to react after it was announced on the club’s official website that Jack O’Connell had signed a new contract with the club, taking his spell at Bramall Lane until at least 2023.
O’Connell has become a key member of Chris Wilder’s squad since his arrival from Brentford back in 2016. The 24-year-old even went on a phenomenal run of 100 consecutive starts until a hamstring injury ended that feat earlier this season; nevertheless, he has been paramount to the club’s surge up the Championship table.
The Englishman has made 130 appearances in total for the Blades, and will be hoping to put the icing on the cake of what has been a phenomenal season by securing promotion back to the Premier League – 2007 was the last time Sheffield United were in the top-flight.
O’Connell’s is the fourth player to sign a new contract at the club in recent weeks, with David McGoldrick, Billy Sharp and Enda Stevens all committing their futures to the club.
Let’s see how the Blades fans reacted to the news on Twitter…
