After an impressive performance in a win over Fenerbahçe in a pre-season friendly, Reed signed a three-year professional contract with Sheffield United. He went on to make his first start for the club in the opening game of the 2014–15 season.[6] Reed signed a new three-year deal with United on 24 July 2015.[7] In July 2017, he joined Chesterfield on a season-long loan deal.[8] He was later transfer-listed by Sheffield United at the end of the 2017–18 season.[9]
