Adams, a lifelong Blades fans, had his odds slashed to 1/3 odds on favourite last night with SkyBet, and rumour has it that he is to open talks with the Blades today (Thursday).
Sky Sports yesterday reported that Doncaster's Sean O'Driscoll is on United's radar, but reports suggest that the compensation Donny are asking for is too much.
Blades Mad believe the Valiants manager is to travel to Sheffield to try and negotiate a deal, permitting Vale allow their highly rated manager permission to talk to the Blades.
Adams supported United as a boy, and has previously stated that the only club he would join when currently in management is Sheffield United.
