Oxford United will be looking to put together another push for the top six when the new League One campaign begins at the end of the month. 

Karl Robinson's side, who narrowly missed out on a play-off spot last time out, after consecutive seasons of losing out in the end-of-season competition, start the 2022/23 term with a difficult trip to Derby County.

Whilst we wait and see what the rest of the summer has in store for the U's, and how the new seasons begins, here, we take a look at the latest Oxford United headlines...

Jodi Jones no longer on Oxford trial 

Former Coventry City winger Jodi Jones was on trial with Oxford earlier on this summer following his release from Coventry, however he is now on trial at Reading.

Jones played in the second half for the Royals in Saturday's friendly against Benfica, with the Portuguese side running out as 2-0 winners at St George's Park.

Oxford near signing of MLS defender 

Oxford are making strong progress in their pursuit of Philadelphia Union defender Stuart Findlay , as per a Twitter update from journalist Tom Bogert, with the MLS defender seeing limited minutes for his current club.

Featuring nearly 150 times for Kilmarnock in three different spells with the Scottish outfit, Findlay has also spent time with Celtic and Newcastle United.

Representing Scotland all the way through youth level, the 26-year-old made his senior debut for his nation back in 2019, scoring his side's fifth goal in a 6-0 rout of San Marino.

Future of James Norwood

A report from TWTD in late April claimed that Oxford United held an immediate interest in James Norwood following his Ipswich exit.

A week ago, Football Insider claimed that Bristol Rovers were leading the race for the released Ipswich man, with Oxford set to miss out. 

However, it remains to be seen how the Gas are progressing in their move. 

Certainly, Norwood is a third-tier operator who could add a lot of value for the majority of clubs in the division.
