Sheffield United sack Ruben Selles and turn back to Chris Wilder: Report

Sheffield United dismissed Ruben Selles after losing six consecutive games without scoring, prompting the club to reappoint Chris Wilder, who led them to 90 points last season.

  • Following a heavy 5-0 loss to Ipswich Town on Friday, Ruben Selles was relieved of his managerial duties at Sheffield United, leaving the team at the bottom of the Championship without any points.
  • Selles had replaced Chris Wilder in June following Wilder's sacking 87 days earlier after United missed promotion in the Championship play-off final.
  • Under Wilder, Sheffield United won League One, gained Premier League promotion, and finished ninth in their first top-flight season before his departure in 2021.
  • Reports indicate the club is considering a 'sensational' third managerial appointment of Wilder to replace Selles ahead of their next game at home to Charlton Athletic.
  • The Blades face pressure to improve after a poor start, with Wilder's possible return suggesting the hierarchy seeks to reverse their winless run and relegation risk.
