BBC Sport Scotland's Brian McLauchlin on Twitter: "Sheffield United have bid turned down for Dundee United striker Johnny Russell. Burnley showing late interest in the player."

judging by the hilarity it has caused on twitter, i would imagine it's a token bid that we knew wasnt going to be accepted.

What club would accept a bid for a prize asset on the last day of the window? Be realistic.

WHat about in the last week of the window? lol

the consensus seems to be he's worth around 2m. celtic, palace, burnley all supposed to be interested. and we have apparently offered 300-400k.

i imagine we made a last minute 500k bid for ronaldo too.

It's worth a pop. All clubs are selling clubs.

Picture the scene. Mourinho at the press conference at the Bernebau:

"When a player hears that a club such as Sheffield United is interested in him, you really can't stand in the lad's way"

When a bid comes in for a player. You cant stand in their way.

Seems like Dundee can.

Yeah because we offered a quarter of what they value him at.

From your vast knowledge of seeing Blackman play please tell me how much he was actually worth?

I'd like to add to that "and how much was the undisclosed fee?"
