The Frenchman is currently without a club after leaving Stoke over the summer and has trained with a number of Championship sides in recent weeks. He has had trials with Blackpool, Bristol City and Cardiff City without earning a contract and featured for the Blades' reserves earlier in the week. However, Ellis has revealed the club were merely helping Pericard out and were not looking to offer the forward a deal at Bramall Lane. "Vincent rang me in midweek because he knew me from our Stoke days and told me that he needed a game because he's getting over a bad injury," Ellis told the club's official website. "It was a personal favour which we were happy to do, so that is job done. I don't see anything else happening."
