Sheffield United duo Chris Lucketti and Keith Gillespie have agreed new deals, reports BBC Radio Sheffield.

The pair were out of contract at the end of the season and despite interest from a number of other clubs both have committed their future to the Blades.

Defender Lucketti, 35, has agreed a one-year deal and winger Gillespie, 32, has signed a two-year contract.

Blades boss Bryan Robson said: "I am delighted they have agreed because it keeps the squad strong."

Robson added: "I have also got about half a dozen players who I am negotiating with to keep them happy within the club."

Well I consider that good news. Been nervously watching the exodus and not much in replacements yet.

I thought for a moment you meant they were booked in with my ex for an interview at Cavendish Court.

Its a good move, we now have two new players plus these two resigning, it should put us in a position to mount a decent challenge. Robbo has to sort out the midfield though, we have been desperate for that midfielder sinc eBrown left and we do have the cash to get make a quality signing if the right player becomes available.
