Date published: 06 July 2018


Athletic manager Frankie Bunn has bolstered his defensive options with the loan signing of Sam Graham from Sheffield United.  
 
The 17-year-old has signed on a season-long loan from the Blades. 
 
Graham is a central defender who has featured many times for Sheffield United under-23s last season. 
 
He enjoyed a loan spell with FC Halifax Town last season and has made the step up to league football for the first time this season.  
 
Bunn said: “He has pace, power and height. He is a young boy and has a willingness to learn.  
 
“He is a talented player and has huge potential.

"He is a good character, person and has excellent values.”
