The emotional 21-year-old also revealed Baldock "looked after him" during his time with the Blades.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>He said: "I've been speaking to some of my old team-mates and it's been hard to talk to them to be honest. Even when I left [Sheffield United] he was still texting me, asking if I needed anything. When I was there he welcomed me with open arms, he looked after me. I played for him and for what he gave me. Everyone knows that he's a special player and a special person. I'm really emotional right now and wishing his family the best. It's been a tough week."</p><p>He added: "I was desperate to score. When I did it was in honour of George. Luckily I've been here with my mates with England but I've been keeping him in my mind."</p>
