Sheffield United's standout midfielder, Vinicius Souza, has officially transferred to Bundesliga club Wolfsburg. The 26-year-old Brazilian, who joined the Blades from Belgian club Lommel in August 2023, has signed a five-year contract with Wolfsburg, keeping him at the club until June 2030.

Souza was a key player for Sheffield United last season, making 76 appearances over two seasons and scoring his only goal in a 3-1 Premier League away win at Luton Town in February 2024. His departure marks the first high-profile exit since the club's stoppage-time defeat by Sunderland in the Championship play-off final and the subsequent departure of former head coach Chris Wilder.

Wolfsburg, known for their competitive edge in the Bundesliga, will be looking to leverage Souza's skills to strengthen their midfield. This transfer is expected to bring a new dynamic to the team as they aim for higher achievements in the upcoming seasons.
