Ipswich Town are reportedly in advanced negotiations with Sheffield United over a potential deal for center-back Anel Ahmedhodzic, according to sources from Football Insider.
The newly promoted Premier League side has pulled ahead of Wolves in the race to sign the 25-year-old. Earlier reports on Monday (19 August) indicated that Gary O’Neil’s Wolves were monitoring Ahmedhodzic’s situation at Bramall Lane, but financial constraints have hindered their ability to complete their summer transfer business, allowing Ipswich to move ahead in the pursuit of the Bosnian international.
Ahmedhodzic has played the full 90 minutes in both of Sheffield United’s Championship matches this season and was a key player for the Blades last season, despite their relegation from the Premier League.

The 25-year-old center-back made 30 starts in 32 Premier League appearances last season, frequently wearing the captain’s armband. His current contract with Sheffield United runs until June 2026, and he has earned 24 caps for Bosnia and Herzegovina, scoring once.
Ipswich Town have been active in the transfer market this summer, securing nine signings so far, including the permanent acquisition of Omari Hutchinson and a loan deal for Kalvin Phillips.
Chelsea’s Armando Broja is reportedly set to join Kieran McKenna’s Ipswich Town, with the club also believed to have made an opening bid for Sunderland star Jack Clarke.
Ipswich began their Premier League campaign with a 2-0 loss to Liverpool on the opening day and are set to face Manchester City away on Saturday, 24 August.
