Sheffield United have announced midfielder Tom Davies is to leave the club at the end of the season.
The 27-year-old joined the Blades in August 2023 as a free agent after turning down a new deal with Everton earlier that summer.
The former England Under-21 international has suffered with a number of injury problems and made just 11 league starts for the Championship side.
"Boss Chris Wilder and officials at Sheffield United thank Tom for his service and wish him well for the future," the club said in a statement.
Davies made his Toffees debut aged 17 in May 2017 and became the club's youngest-ever captain when he skippered the side in an EFL Cup tie against Rotherham aged 20 years and 60 days.
However, he opted to leave the club at the end of the 2022-23 season after making just six Premier League starts across his final two campaigns with the club.
Davies said he was joining a club with a "great project" when he signed a three-year contract at Bramall Lane but the manager who signed him, Paul Heckingbottom, was sacked in November and he managed just nine appearances as the Blades went on to finish bottom of the Premier League.
He missed the first three months of last season and played 16 times across all competitions, including in all three of the side's play-off games.
The club sent him to Germany for treatment on a persistent calf problem in November and his most recent start against Millwall on 31 January ended with him being substituted after 48 minutes.
