Sheffield United remain hopeful of agreeing new contracts with veteran pair Keith Gillespie and Chris Lucketti.

Blades boss Bryan Robson is keen to retain the soon to be out-of-contract pair for next season and has made offers to both the former Manchester United and Newcastle United winger plus the experienced defender.

"We had a verbal confirmation from Keith's agent that he'll be signing. It's made up, waiting for him to sign, but he's on holiday," revealed chairman Terry Robinson.

Meanwhile, on 35-year-old Lucketti's future, he added: "Chris is on his holidays and is back on Monday or Tuesday, I think. Then we'll know fully what his decision is.

"Chris is at an age where other clubs are looking at him and giving him extended contracts.

"At this stage, we've made Chris an offer and it's for him to decide whether to take it up."
