Oxford United Striker Joins Barnsley on Loan Move
Oxford United striker, Tom Bradshaw, has joined Barnsley on loan as of the January transfer deadline. This move comes after a challenging year in Oxford, during which he faced limited playing time.
Struggles at Oxford United
The 33-year-old forward fell out of favor with the management, first under Gary Rowett and currently with head coach Matt Bloomfield. Bradshaw has notably not been included in seven of the last eight match-day squads for the Championship.
Limited Game Time
His last appearance for Oxford United was as a substitute in a 2-1 loss against Preston North End in December. Throughout his tenure this season, he failed to find the net in 18 appearances.
Joining Barnsley
Barnsley, currently positioned 15th in the league, welcomes Bradshaw into their roster, hoping to reinvigorate their attacking options. The club has secured 10 victories out of 25 matches this season.
Upcoming Moves for Oxford United
- Bradshaw’s departure marks the first transfer for Oxford in the January window.
- The club is focused on making additional moves, as they aim to manage their bloated squad effectively.
As the season progresses, both Oxford United and Barnsley look to strengthen their squads and improve their league standings. Fans will be keen to see how Bradshaw performs at his new club in the coming matches.
