Oxford United has been placed under a temporary transfer embargo by the English Football League, restricting the club from making new signings this summer. The club aims to retain its current squad as new head coach Aaron Ramsey prepares for the upcoming season following relegation from the Championship.
The embargo is a result of non-compliance with salary cost management protocols, which regulate financial spending on player-related costs. Oxford's management is optimistic that the embargo will be lifted by January, as they work to align their finances with league requirements.
