Hungarian starlet Botond Birtalan has travelled to England to spend a week training with Sheffield United.
According to Hungarian press, Birtalan was supposed to be attending training with the youth team during his time at the club.
However, it is believed that the 17-year-old impressed Blades staff so much that he will work with Neil Warnock's first-team squad.
The young striker currently plays for FC Sopron in the Hungarian first division.
United scouts watched him in action against Debrecen in November, a game Sopron lost 6-1, although Birtalan scored the home side's only goal.
