Republic of Ireland forward Callum Robinson has signed for Premier League newcomers Sheffield United.
He makes the move after the Blades had a bid accepted by Preston North End yesterday and was given permission to leave their training camp in Cork.
United say they've smashed their transfer record to sign Robinson.

The 24-year-old has signed a four-year deal at Bramall Lane and becomes boss Chris Wilder's third signing of the summer, following Luke Freeman and Phil Jagielka.
Wilder feels he'll add pace to their attack.
"Callum fits into our structure perfectly as we look to Championship players who we feel can be successful at Premier League level.
"Callum is someone who was on our radar a number of years ago and he has progressed how we thought he would and hopefully there is plenty more to come.
"I feel Callum is a great age and what we have paid represents great value in the current market."
