Armando Broja has said yes to Exeter City

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Oxford United have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Kasper Wind asks to leave Oxford United

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Mousa Openda has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Oxford United they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Transfer targets

Oxford United have gone to Birmingham with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Too dear: Oxford United walk away from Mark O'Mahony

$490.0K was the most the club would pay and Brentford were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.

Transfer targets

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

A muscle injury sidelines Thomas Marshall for 14 days

Nobody makes a documentary about a hamstring and everybody in the game fears one. Oxford United will be careful with the return date, because the second one is always worse than the first.

In brief
