Vinicius Souza has left Sheffield United for Bundesliga side Wolfsburg in a deal reportedly worth €15million.

The Brazilian joined Sheffield United ahead of their 2023-24 Premier League campaign after an eye-catching loan spell with Espanyol, impressing despite the Blades' relegation.

He won 75 tackles that season, the most in the Premier League, with only then-Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha (152) and Wolves' Joao Gomes (128) attempting more than his 125.

Vinicius then played 35 times as Sheffield United narrowly missed out on a top-flight return last season, finishing third in the Championship and losing to Sunderland in the play-off final.

Following the Blades' failure to get back to the big time, they have sanctioned his move to Wolfsburg on a five-year contract.

The 26-year-old joins a Wolfsburg side that finished 11th in the German top flight in 2024-25. They open their new campaign against Heidenheim on August 23.
