Chris Wilder is expected to be sacked as Sheffield United boss after missing out on promotion to the Premier League, according to reports.

The 57-year-old, who guided his hometown club from League One to the top flight at the end of the 2018-19 season, is set to be relieved of his duties following a review of the Blades' Sky Bet Championship campaign, a little more than 19 months after returning to Bramall Lane for a second spell in charge.
