Oxford have announced the signing of Will Lankshear from Premiership side Tottenham Hotspur.
He joins the Oxfordshire club on a season-long loan.
The 20-year-old youth international began his career at Tottenham after moving from Sheffield United.
He has made three appearances for the North London club to date. In January 2025, he joined West Bromwich Albion, making eleven appearances as they narrowly missed out on the play-offs.
He spoke to the club website about the move: “This is a really exciting opportunity for me to be joining a great club.
“I learned so much last season in the first team at Tottenham and West Brom, and I’m ready to now kick on with Oxford United.
“I love nothing more than scoring goals. I want to do my best to bring as many as I can this season.”
Manager Gary Rowett added: “Will is an athletic, strong, quick goalscorer and someone who we feel can make an immediate impact.
“He has an outstanding record at youth level with club and country. He knows the way to goal, and we hope he can add those qualities to our team.”
