Feyenoord lodge 18m euro bid for Ahmedhodzic

Feyenoord have submitted an offer of 18m euros (£15.6m) for Sheffield United defender Anel Ahmedhodzic.

The 26-year-old has made 114 appearances for the Championship club since joining in July 2022 from Malmo.

Ahmedhodzic was a target for Premier League Wolves last summer, but remained at Bramall Lane for the 2024-25 campaign, where the Blades lost in the play-off final to Sunderland.

Feyenoord, who finished third in the Eredivisie last season, sold Slovakian centre-back David Hancko to Atletico Madrid in July and have turned to Ahmedhodzic as a replacement.

The Bosnia-Herzegovina international spent three years with Nottingham Forest between January 2016 and 2019, before spells at Malmo, Hobro IK and Bordeaux.

Sheffield United begin the Championship season under new manager Ruben Selles at home to Bristol City on Saturday, 9 August.

Dutch outfit Feyenoord host Fenerbahce in the first leg of third-round qualifying in the Champions League on Wednesday, 6 August.
