Will Osula deliver a two-word message to the £60 million Premier League star after providing him counsel on international duty?
Sheffield United may not have the most players on international duty this week compared to other Premier League teams.
The Blades have a few away with their respective countries. Last week, George Baldock performed admirably for Greece, but Anel Ahmedhodzic suffered defeat in his play-off semi-final against Ukraine.
For United, most of the attention around the internationals is on some of the younger players. Oliver Arblaster made his England Elite Squad debut, while James McAtee represented England’s under-21 team.
Will Osula, another young player, is an excellent striker. The young Dane was chosen by the Danish 21s for this week’s vacation.
Speaking to the Sheffield Star about his time with Denmark, Osula confessed that he seeks counsel from a Premier League player worth £60 million.
Will Osula learn off of Joachim Andersen?
Of course, Crystal Palace player Joachim Andersen has a wealth of expertise in the game while being only 27.
Speaking about Andersen, Osula has acknowledged that he communicates with the big defender frequently and is eager to take his wisdom and expertise on board.
“We know each other because we share the same agency. So we’ve discussed a lot together. I’d say we’re excellent buddies. He communicates well with me, and we spoke before and after both of our games against Crystal Palace. Osula said, “They also gave me some good advice, which I have taken to heart.”
“After the first match, he told me to just keep grinding and working hard.” I simply had to do my thing. I have a lot of respect for Joachim since he is a great man and a regular at Crystal Palace. “He is a good friend.”
Osula came off the bench in Friday’s 1–1 tie with Austria.
However, he will be hoping to start when the young Danes face Lithuania later today.
Osula has been an important component of the team this season, having played much of games under both Paul Heckingbottom and Chris Wilder.
With United projected to slip into the Championship, Osula, who has signed a new contract, is anticipated to be a vital player for the Blades.
