League One Transfers: January 2024

Oxford United
In: 0 Out: 3

Out:
Midfielder: Stan Mills, 20 (end of loan from Everton due to injury)

Significant knee injury - probably ACL - suffered during the FA Cup defeat at Coventry on Saturday.
 
Exeter City
In: 1 Out: 1

Out:
Midfielder: Ryan Trevitt, 20 (end of loan from Brentford due to injury)

Suffered a long-term ankle injury in the defeat at Cambridge on 22 December.
 
Oxford United
In: 0 Out: 4

Out:
Goalkeeper: James Beadle, 18 (end of loan from Brighton & Hove Albion)
 
Oxford United
In: 0 Out: 5

Out:
Midfielder: Kyle Edwards, 25 (end of loan from Ipswich Town due to injury)

Originally suffered a hamstring injury in training in September, returning briefly before a recurrence put paid to his loan. Unusually, he will undertake his rehabilitation at Oxford, suggesting he will be signing permanently for the club when his contract for Ipswich ends in the summer.
 
Lincoln City
In: 2 Out: 3

In:
Striker: Joe Taylor, 21 (on loan from Luton Town to the end of the season)

Scored 12 in 27 appearances for Colchester during the first half of the season. Lincoln have now signed two new strikers (Taylor and Jack Moylan) plus recalled Freddie Draper from Walsall - between them, they have scored 29 goals since the start of August.
 
Port Vale
In: 1 Out: 1

In:
Midfielder: Jensen Weir, 21 (on loan from Brighton & Hove Albion to the end of the season)

Previously on loan at Blackpool this season, Weir is becoming a loan groupie - this is his fourth loan to League One in two-and-a-half seasons.
 
Not an arrival exactly, more an unexpected non-departure: against expectation, Huddersfield have not recalled Jordan Rhodes from Blackpool. I wonder whether they realised when the review window closed?
 
Very quiet in League One since Saturday, only 3 in and 5 out in four days.

That probably means most of the loans that are likely to be recalled have been, and bigger clubs will now complete their own incoming transfer business before deciding which players they can allow to leave. Expect the usual flurry of loans in the final few days of the window.
 
Derby County
In: 0 Out: 1

Out:
Midfielder: Elliot Embleton, 24 (end of loan from Sunderland)

Injured a thigh muscle during training in September which needed an operation and returned to Sunderland to recuperate; loan spell has now been formally ended.
 
Leyton Orient
In: 0 Out: 1

Out:
Defender: Brandon Cooper, 23 (end of loan from Swansea City)
 
Bristol Rovers
In: 0 Out: 2

Out:
Midfielder: Ryan Woods, 30 (end of loan from Hull City)
 
Oxford United
In: 1 Out: 5

In:
Midfielder: Tyler Burey, 22 (on loan from Odense – Denmark – to the end of the season)
 
Bristol Rovers
In: 0 Out: 2

Out:
Midfielder: Ryan Woods, 30 (end of loan from Hull City)

Slightly interesting that one as seemed like a great signing on paper, getting on for 400 EFL games under his belt with the vast majority in the Championship. 30 years old so you wouldn't think on the scrapheap yet! Bristol Rovers fans said he was good for a couple of games then disappeared.
 
Lincoln City
In: 2 Out: 3

In:
Striker: Joe Taylor, 21 (on loan from Luton Town to the end of the season)

Scored 12 in 27 appearances for Colchester during the first half of the season. Lincoln have now signed two new strikers (Taylor and Jack Moylan) plus recalled Freddie Draper from Walsall - between them, they have scored 29 goals since the start of August.
I thought there were 4 out.
 
Burton Albion
In: 0 Out: 1

Out:
Striker: Kwadwo Baah, 20 (end of loan from Watford)

Another loanee returning to his parent club with an injury.
 
Carlisle United
In: 4 Out: 1

In:
Goalkeeper: Harry Lewis, 26 (Bradford City)

Carlisle splashing some cash in an effort to stay in L1 - four new arrivals so far, three of whom are permanent signings.
