Sheffield United midfielder Brian Howard believes he has finally won over the doubters who thought his move to Bramall Lane was financially motivated.

The former Barnsley captain, 26, is expected to play in the Championship play-off final against Burnley.

"I think people have realised that I didn't sign here for the money," Howard told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"I want to be a Premier League player, and I felt I had the best chance of doing that coming here."
