Cambridge United have signed Stockport County midfielder Owen Moxon on a season-long loan deal. The 28-year-old becomes the club's eighth signing of the summer 2024 transfer window, as reported by the BBC this week.
Moxon's move forms part of a swap arrangement, with Cambridge defender Mamadou Jobe's transfer to Stockport County confirmed on the same day. The midfielder expressed his enthusiasm for the switch. "I originally heard about the interest quite early in the window, and it feels like a great fit," Moxon said.
