Gustavo Hamer, a Sheffield United midfielder, could leave Bramall Lane this month due to rumored interest from Turkish club Trabzonspor.

The Blades have had a disappointing Championship season thus far, which took a turn for the worse on Saturday when they were defeated 1-0 by Charlton Athletic.

Meanwhile, Hamer has not made a league start for the South Yorkshire club since their 5-3 defeat to Wrexham on Boxing Day, which may impact his future plans.

The 28-year-old was named to Chris Wilder’s starting eleven and scored when Sheffield United fell 4-3 to Mansfield Town in the FA Cup third round, but he was forced to sit on the bench against Charlton.

According to a Sheffield United specialist, Gustavo Hamer’s leaving is ‘different this time’.

Hamer is frequently the focus of transfer speculation when the market is open, and he has been one of the Blades’ standout performances since coming from Coventry City in 2023.

Trabzonspor of Turkey is apparently interested in both the Dutchman and his teammate Harrison Burrows, who has 25 Championship appearances this season.

With Trabzonspor’s interest in Hamer, Football League World asked our Sheffield United fan pundit, Jimmy from the Blades Ramble YouTube channel, if this is the window in which the midfielder will leave Bramall Lane, and if the transfer to Turkey is a good fit for him.

Jimmy said, “Will he remain or leave? Every transfer window, we seem to have the same conversation regarding Gus Hamer. “It’s a little different this time because he hasn’t performed this season.”He’s fit and doesn’t get into the side. He will only lose value if he does not sign a deal. If he doesn’t sign a deal, I’d consider selling him.It’s not a trade to a divisional opponent, which I believe advantages us because we know he’s an excellent player. We haven’t seen the same from him this season. “It depends on whether he wants to commit to Sheffield United or not.”We’d be delighted to keep him, I am sure. But we also have to operate our business, and with 18 months on his contract, we may consider cashing out if he doesn’t want to continue.”

Sheffield United may be better off aiding Gustavo Hamer’s departure this month.

Hamer has been a valuable member of the Blades’ squad, as seen by his 10 goals and eight assists in all competitions last season.

However, as Jimmy mentioned, the former Coventry man has battled for game time in the Championship in recent weeks, suggesting that now is a good moment for the South Yorkshire club to cash in on his services.

While Hamer can be a valuable asset in the second division, Blades manager Wilder also has the option of relying on other skilled attacking midfielders like Callum O’Hare.

Furthermore, the former PEC Zwolle star’s contract at Bramall Lane expires in June 2027, which means his present club has few chances to reclaim a substantial transfer fee for his services, especially as his game time decreases.
