Oxford United have had a £400,000 bid rejected by Fleetwood Town for striker Jack Marriott, according to TEAMtalk. The former Derby County man joined the Cod Army in January from Peterborough United and scored eight goals in 21 games for them in all competitions during the second-half of the last campaign. The U’s have a vacancy to fill in attack following the departure of Blackpool new boy Kyle Joseph at the end of last term following the expiration of his loan from Swansea City.
Charlton Athletic land midfielder
Charlton Athletic have signed midfielder Terry Taylor from Burton Albion. The Wales youth international, who has been on the books at Wolves in the past, has penned a three-year deal with the Addicks. He has told their club website: “It feels amazing. Having a look at the ground, meeting everyone at the training ground, it feels really good so I can’t wait to get going. I think the big thing that sticks out to me was the ambition, his [Dean Holden’s] plan and how he plans to execute it this season and just where the club is headed, in the general direction, I think there’s a really good feel to it.”
Pair leave Wigan Athletic
Midfielder Jamie McGrath and defender Jack Whatmough have both left Wigan Athletic on free transfers. The pair are now free agents and will both have to find new homes this summer. Shaun Maloney’s side were relegated alongside Blackpool last season.
