Oxford United are out of the race for Colchester United forward Kyreece Lisbie. Reading have had a bid accepted for the 22-year-old.
What happened?
Oxford United had expressed interest in Lisbie, but have since reduced their interest. The U's had met with the player previously, but have made no recent contact.
Why it matters for Oxford United
The departure of head coach Matt Bloomfield and head of recruitment Scott Mitchell has led to a change in the club's transfer priorities. Oxford United are yet to make their first signing of the summer transfer window.
What comes next?
The club's next priority is finding a new head coach, with former Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey a potential candidate. Ramsey has a UEFA A License and is currently studying for his UEFA Pro Licence.
Oxford United have undergone significant changes, with new chairman Dusan Bogdanovic replacing Grant Ferguson. The club will be looking to make new signings in the coming weeks.
