Muhamed Besic has joined Sheffield United on loan for the forthcoming 2019/20 Premier League campaign.

Midfielder Besic spent last term on loan in the Championship with Middlesbrough.

He played 39 matches and scored twice for the Teesside club, where Besic also made 17 appearances during a temporary stay in the second half of 2017/18.

The Bosnian signed for Everton from Hungarian team Ferencvaros in summer 2014 after representing his country in that year’s World Cup finals.

Besic, 26, has made 56 appearances for the Club – 37 in the Premier League – and moves to Bramall Lane ahead of Sheffield United’s first top-flight season for 12 years.
