Brentford transfer news: Romelle Donovan to join Sheffield United on loan

Brentford forward Romelle Donovan is set for a season-long loan spell at Sheffield United.

The 19-year-old is widely regarded as among the stars of the Bees academy having excelled in key Brentford B games and earned nine first-team appearances last season.

He is now expected to join a Blades team with Chris Wilder back in charge and as their first signing of the summer, despite other interest within the Championship and in Europe.

A number of players have left the Bramall Lane club, including Alex Matos joining Goztepe on loan and Andre Brooks moving to Norwich City, and Danny Ings and Jairo Riedewald being released.

Alongside that, defender Ben Mee has retired from football.

Donovan is an England Under-20 international who was signed by Brentford from Birmingham City in 2025 after an initial loan spell.
