Oxford United star reportedly set for summer MLS transfer
Oxford United star Przemyslaw Placheta is reportedly set for a move to Major League Soccer outfit Austin FC.
The winger’s contract with United is set to expire this summer after a two-year stint in OX4 with a move to the United States touted.
Polish journalist Tomasz Włodarczyk revealed that Placheta has apparently decided to swap English football for the MLS amidst interest in his signature from elsewhere.
Austin is set to be the Pole’s destination, a franchise club founded in 2018 and competing at the top level of US football.
Placheta joined Oxford in the summer of 2024 on a free transfer after his contract at Swansea City expired and has played a total of 60 matches for The U’s, scoring six times and assisting on four occasions.
This season, he has featured 27 times in all competitions and scored three times whilst assisting once.
The second half of the campaign has seen the 28-year-old hampered by injury after featuring a lot in the first half under Gary Rowett.
Current head coach Matt Bloomfield confirmed he would miss the remainder of the season after Placheta picked up an injury in training following a 2-0 victory over Watford.
The former Norwich City and Birmingham City man has shown signs of brilliance in a yellow shirt, with big goals this season in wins against Bristol City and Ipswich Town, but struggled to show really consistency in his attacking performances for Oxford.
