Joe Riley: Sheffield United sign Manchester United full-back on loan

Manchester United full-back Joe Riley has joined the Blades on loan until the end of the season

League One leaders Sheffield United have signed Manchester United full-back Joe Riley on loan for the rest of the season.

The Blades have been interested in the 20-year-old for a number of weeks but were forced to wait for him to return to fitness after a hamstring injury.

Riley played 85 minutes of United's 1-0 Premier League 2 victory over Liverpool on Monday.

The full-back has made two first-team appearances for Manchester United.
