Sheffield United have denied that a deal has already been agreed that will see Phil Jagielka leave Bramall Lane to join Everton.

The versatile 24-year-old is expected to move on this summer, following United's relegation from the Premier League, with a £4million switch to Goodison Park the most likely deal.

However, a statement on the Sheffield club's official website read: "Phil Jagielka's immediate future is continuing to attract media attention.

"The Blades would like to confirm that no agreements are in place with any club with regards to Jagielka.

"Media speculation is rife regarding Jagielka's future in light of United's relegation and his recent inclusion in the England B team.

"However, he remains a contracted Blades player and new boss Bryan Robson watched him in action for England B against Albania on Friday evening."
