Convicted rapist Ched Evans 'to train with Sheffield United'

Convicted rapist Ched Evans will reportedly begin training with Sheffield United later this week to build up his fitness levels.

League One club Sheffield United will reportedly allow convicted rapist Ched Evans to begin training with them this week so that he can build up his fitness levels.

The 25-year-old was released from prison last month after serving half of a five-year jail term imposed in April 2012 for raping a 19-year-old woman in a hotel room in 2011.

Sheffield United, Evans's last club, have previously denied reports that they will offer him a new contract and, according to BBC Sport, this latest move is not necessarily a precursor to the Welsh international being given a new deal at Bramall Lane.

Over 150,000 people have signed a petition urging the Blades not to re-sign Evans.

However, others, including the Professional Footballers' Association, believe that the striker has served his punishment and should be able to play again.
