Oxford United is set to 'get deals done' under new head coach Aaron Ramsey. The club's head of football operations, Ed Waldron, says a plan is in place to strengthen the squad.

What's the plan?

Oxford United has been preparing for the new season, with the transfer window now open. The Yellows finished 22nd in the Championship last season, with 47 points from 46 games.

Why it matters for Oxford United

The club's poor form towards the end of the season, including a 2-0 loss to Millwall on May 2, 2026, has highlighted the need for new signings. Waldron confirmed that the club has had a few bids for players, but will only sell on their terms.

What comes next?

The Oxford squad is set to report back for pre-season next week, with the new boss having already met some of the players. The club's first pre-season fixture is against Aldershot Town on July 21, 2026. | Stat | Value | | --- | --- | | League standing | 22nd in Championship | | Goals this season | 45 scored, 59 conceded | | Title race | 48 points behind leaders Coventry | | Last result | Millwall 2-0 Oxford United | | Recent form | 2W-0D-3L | | Next fixture | vs Aldershot Town (away, 2026-07-21) | Oxford United will be looking to improve on their recent form, which has seen them lose their last two games.
