Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder has accused Wrexham of a “blanket bombing” approach after their bid for Callum O’Hare.

Red Dragons boss Phil Parkinson is eager to add an attacking midfielder before Tuesday night’s transfer deadline.

The bid for O’Hare is thought to be worth £6.5m, but Blades manager Wilder said he wants the 28-year-old to stay at Bramall Lane.

“He’s a good player so I’m not surprised there’s been interest,” he said.

“I wouldn’t want him to go, but I understand there’s a bid in and it’ll be dealt with by the certain people who deal with these (things).”

O’Hare, now in his third season with the Blades, has featured in each of Sheffield United’s five matches across all competitions.

He scored in his side’s draw with Cardiff City last time out and also netted in the Blades’ EFL Cup first round victory over Mansfield Town on 9 August.

The former Aston Villa, Carlisle United and Coventry City attacker still has two years left to run on his deal at Bramall Lane.

Wilder also accused Wrexham of a “blanket bombing” approach to the final stages of the summer transfer window.

“This is not a criticism, but Wrexham are in for half the division,” Wilder added in his press conference ahead of his side’s home Championship fixture with Bolton Wanderers on Tuesday (19:45 BST).

“They’ve done business, it’s their prerogative and what they need to do.

“I know there have been bids on other players from that football club in that position as well, so maybe it’s a bit of blanket bombing in that position and see what comes up.

“It’s not a done deal, I’ve notified Cal to get his head down and get his head on and (focus on) playing for us on Tuesday night.

“If that changes, then that changes. But I know they’ve been in for a number of players, which is what they can do at this particular point of the window, and Callum is one of them.”

It is not the first time Wilder – a former team-mate of Parkinson’s at Southampton in the 1980s – issued a dig at the Wrexham manager.

Ahead of his side’s league fixture with Cardiff last Saturday, Wilder spoke about Wrexham’s meeting with Brian Barry-Murphy’s men on the opening weekend of the 2026-27 Championship.

“I watched the game against Wrexham, I thought it was one-way traffic for 20 minutes,” he said.

“The second half, I didn’t agree with what the Wrexham manager said, I don’t usually anyway, in terms of that it was a one-sided game.

“I thought he should give the opposition a little bit more credit and respect.”
