Madine's days at Sheffield united are already over. The loan has ended.
I don't think they will come back for him for next season - but no doubt he won most of the doubters over during that spell. I was surprised how popular he bacame with Blades fans after a difficult start.

I expect Madine's agent will be trying to engineer a transfer for him back up north - even if Sheffield United don't want him. He's a 'home boy' and needs to feel comfortable and wanted to perform. He's been clear in his comments that he doesn't feel right at Cardiff!
