Sheffield United announce the arrival of Roma goalkeeper Robin Olsen on loan for the 2021-22 season.

Sheffield United have announced the arrival of Swedish goalkeeper Robin Olsen on a season-long loan deal.

The Blades waved goodbye to first-choice goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale earlier in the summer, with the 23-year-old joining Arsenal in a deal worth close to £30m.

Slavisa Jokanovic's side were therefore expected to add to their shot-stopping ranks before the summer window closed for business, and it was announced late on Tuesday night that Olsen has joined the club.

The 31-year-old - who started all four of Sweden's games at Euro 2020 - spent the 2020-21 season on loan at Everton but only made 11 appearances for the club in all competitions.

Olsen was a regular fixture for Roma in the 2018-19 season - making all of his 35 appearances for the club so far that year - and his deal with the Serie A side is due to expire in the summer of 2023.
