Sheffield United are officially relegated back to the EFL Championship after just two seasons back in the Premier League after their 1-0 loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers courtesy of Willian Jose’s first Premier League goal.

Sheffield gained promotion to the Premier League in the 2019/20 season and finished ninth with lots of impressive performances but their fortunes have turned the other way round in the 2020/21 season which led to the departure of Chris Wilder who had been at the club since 2016.

Sheffield U23 manager Paul Heckingbottom took charge on an interim basis but the results have been going the same way. They are on 14 points and it has become mathematically impossible to catch 17th placed Brighton and Hove Albion on 33points, they are officially relegated.
