Manchester United midfielder Joe Rothwell has left the club to join Oxford United, the club has announced.
The 21-year-old joins on a two year deal from the Red Devils after loan spells at Blackpool and Barnsley.
Head Coach Michael Appleton was full of praise for the youngster as he described him as an exciting prospect.
"Joe is a really talented lad who we believe has a very bright future," Appleton told the club's official website.
"He has played for all of the England age group teams and been around the first team at Old Trafford.
"He can play midfield or slightly further forward and he now gets a chance to get a run of games together and truly show what he can do."
