Jordan Slew

Sheffield United

Having started his career as a youngster with the Sheffield United academy, Slew made his first-team debut at the start of October 2010, coming on as an 86th-minute substitute in a 1–0 home defeat to Watford. He then signed his first senior professional contract with Sheffield United at the start of November, a deal designed to tie him to the club until the summer of 2012. After two further late-substitute appearances, he made his first start for Sheffield United in April 2011, playing the whole game and scoring in a 3–1 defeat to Preston North End at Deepdale. He made eight appearances in total for the club during the 2010–11 campaign, scoring twice. As well as his breakthrough into the first-team, Slew also played an instrumental part in Sheffield United's run in the 2010–11 FA Youth Cup, where they reached the final before losing to Manchester United's Academy side over two legs. Slew scored three goals during the cup run, including a goal in the first leg of the final. By May 2011, several Premier League and Championship teams had enquired about acquiring Slew's services, with United turning down a £500,000 offer from Fulham. Shortly after, Slew agreed an improved two-year deal to keep him at Bramall Lane until 2014. He began the 2011–12 season as a first-team regular, playing in all of United's games during that August, scoring once.

Born in Sheffield Slew is a lifelong supporter of his first club, Sheffield United. He enjoys classical music and when interviewed by radio station Classic FM, Slew described himself as "...like an old man in a young man's body!" After revealing this, he said he listened to the station while driving. In March 2015, he was caught by police speeding at 156 miles per hour (251 km/h) in his BMW M4 on the Cambridgeshire section of the A1, in what was the fastest recorded speed on a public road in the UK for more than three years; he was banned from driving for six months and handed a £1,400 fine.
