Three shots in start Archer generated three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Manchester United.

Impact Despite a fruitless result, Archer made a solid impression in his first start for Southhampton as he fired a season-high three shots and two shots on target, before subbing off in the 62nd minute. On the other hand, he has yet to record a chance created, goal or assist through four appearances.

SEPTEMBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Signs with Southampton Archer has transferred to Southampton from Aston Villa, his new club confirmed.

Impact Archer has departed Aston Villa after serving last campaign on loan with Sheffield, having been moved to another Premier League club in Southampton. He was decent in the past season, starting in 21 of his 29 appearances while notching four goals on 42 shots and one assist on 24 chances created. He is a true No. 9 who should see plenty of field time this season, possibly fighting for a starting role immediately after joining the club.

AUGUST 16 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to Aston Villa Archer has transferred back to Aston Villa from Sheffield United due to the terms of his contract, according to his club.

Impact Archer only spent one season with Sheffield United before he has been forced to return to Aston Villa. This happened due to a term in the initial transfer agreement last summer, as it was noted that if Sheffield got relegated, Aston Villa would be forced to buy the player back, and that has come to fruition after the Blades' 20th-place finish. It will not be interesting to see what role he holds with Villa next campaign, as he is likely to mainly serve off the bench. He finishes his time at Sheffield starting in 21 of his 29 appearances, notching four goals on 42 shots and one assist on 24 chances created.

JULY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Scores four in debut season Archer scored four goals and recorded one assist in 29 appearances (21 starts) this past season.

Impact Archer had a decent season in his first campaign with Sheffield United, recording five goal contributions, most notably a goal in a 1-1 draw at Aston Villa in December. He took 42 shots (11 on target) and created 24 chances in his 1800 minutes of action. The 22-year-old is set to be an important part of Sheffield United's attack next season in the Championship.

JUNE 12 • ROTOWIRE

Takes four shots in loss Archer had four off-target shots and made two tackles (both won) during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Everton.

Impact Archer was definitely a threat up front, pacing his side in shots attempted, although none of them hit the target this time. The forward couldn't find the back of the net since returning from injury in April, but this isn't for lack of trying as he had 10 shots over the last three starts.

MAY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Busy in starts Archer has started three matches in a row, taking seven shots and creating three chances.

Impact Archer is back in the starting XI for the first time since before the Christmas break. The forward hasn't found the back of the net, but he's had plenty of volume. With the heavily limited midfield and attack around him Archer will likely struggle for any sort of end product in the final matches of the Premier League.

MAY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Assists off the bench Archer assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Chelsea.

Impact Archer made his return from a calf injury with three minutes off the bench but that was enough time for him to assist Oli McBurnie's second-half equalizer. His impressive cameo and Sheffield's need to be aggressive as they chase points mean that he will likely see his minutes increase in the coming matches.

APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE

Ready for return Archer (calf) is available for Sunday's clash with Chelsea, according to manager Chris Wilder."Getting Cameron Archer back is good news, a positive one for us."

Impact Archer is back available Sunday after missing Thursday's 3-1 loss to Liverpool. With the quick turnaround it's possible Archer is thrown straight back into a starting role for the weekend's match. The forward made 16 starts (21 appearances) before the injury.

APRIL 5 • ROTOWIRE

Still out Archer (calf) is out for Thursday's match against Liverpool.

Impact Archer is still not ready for a return, now having missed the club's past six matches after being left out once again due to calf issues. The forward will now hope to return in the club's next contest against Chelsea on Sunday, as he is a regular starter when fit, getting the start in 16 of his 21 appearances this campaign.

APRIL 4 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Saturday Archer (calf) is not in the squad to face Fulham on Saturday.

Impact Archer misses his fifth straight contest despite being given a chance to feature in the buildup to Saturday's match. The forward will hope to return in mid week against Liverpool.

MARCH 30 • ROTOWIRE

Could return against Fulham Archer (calf) is a possibility for Saturday's match against Fulham, as manager Chris Wilder stated, "Archer is a 'nearly' and Slimane is a 'nearly'. Hopefully, they'll be back invo...

Impact Archer seems to be on the right side of a return, looking for that to possibly come Saturday after a spell on the sidelines due to a calf issue. However, it does appear he will be a game-time decision, perhaps facing a late fitness test to determine if he gets on the team sheet or not. If the forward does return, he will hope to get back in the starting XI, as he has started in 16 of his 21 appearances this campaign, although he did serve off the bench in four of his past five appearances.

MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE

Out through break Archer (calf) is not expected back before the March international break with manager Chris Wilder telling reporters Thursday, "I'm sure that he won't be available before the intern...

Impact Archer was out of action for the club's previous two contests and now will be unavailable for at least three more, though it could certainly be longer. Prior to getting hurt, the forward made just one start in his last five outings, registering one goal on four shots (one on target), one cross (accurate) and two clearances. With Ben Brereton Diaz (hamstring) likely to return, Archer likely would have found himself back on the bench even if fit.

FEBRUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Misses out with calf problem Archer was unable to make the squad against Brighton on Sunday with a calf injury, per Danny Hall of The Star.

Impact Archer had made just one start in his previous five outings, logging a combined 155 minutes in which he recorded one goal on four shots (one on target), one cross (accurate) and two clearances. With Ben Brereton Diaz (hamstring) also unavailable, the Blades turned to Yasser Larouci in an attacking role.

FEBRUARY 19 • ROTOWIRE

Scores opener versus Luton Town Archer scored a goal off two shots (one on target) during Saturday's 3-1 win over Luton Town.

Impact Archer had his first start since the calendar flipped to 2024 and made most of the opportunity, opening the scoring for the Blades at the half-hour mark after making a great run from the left. This was just the fourth goal of the season and the first since Dec. 22 for the forward, who will hope this a sign of better things to come. Archer's performance definitely put him in contention to remain in the lineup for Feb. 18 clash against Brighton.

Falls out of favor Archer seems to have fallen out of favor within the Sheffield starting XI, having served from the bench in his last four appearances.

Impact Archer began the season as a regular starter, only missing one start in a stretch of 16 matches, so it is a bit surprising to see him drop to the bench. This most likely comes from the forward's low production in the goal-scoring category this season, only having three goal contributions in 10 appearances this season. His stats also haven't been anything amazing this year, registering a minimal three crosses, 18 chances created and 27 shots. The forward will most likely remain in this spot moving forward unless he can find a new gear in the second half of the season, as Sheffield is in dire need of a goal scorer, sitting dead last in goal scored with only 19 on the campaign and Archer does not look to be the fix they need at this moment in time.

FEBRUARY 5 • ROTOWIRE

Scores versus Aston Villa Archer scored a goal off two shots (one on target) during Friday's 1-1 draw against Aston Villa.

Impact Archer was having a quiet performance until the latter stages of the match but then he turned things around in the 87th minute by slotting home a pass from the left flank to open the scoring for his side. The goal against his former club was just the third of the season for the forward and he'll hope this is a sign of better things to come. Up next for Archer is Tuesday's home clash against Luton Town.

Four shots in rout Archer recorded four shots (zero on goal) in Wednesday's 2-0 loss to Liverpool.

Impact Archer shot four times but failed to truly trouble the Liverpool net. The striker will have easier matches to look forward to, though the entire attack has been scuffling along as of late. Archer's run of games until the Christmas break will be brutally difficult with the only reprieve coming during a Boxing day clash with Luton Town.

Scores opening goal in win Archer scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Wolverhampton.

He also recorded 12 passes in the match and is up to 96 completed passes on the season.
