Oxford United have had no contact from Championship for Tyler Goodrham

OXFORD United have received no offers for Tyler Goodrham, head coach Liam Manning has confirmed.

National reports have suggested the 19-year-old attacker is wanted by ‘multiple’ clubs in Sky Bet Championship.

However, U’s boss Manning says the club hasn’t received any communication from other sides.

He said: “We’ve not had any contact from anyone and there’s nothing that I’m aware of or been told about.

“Obviously at this stage of the year, there’s lots of noise.”

Goodrham again caught the eye with an all-action display as United drew 0-0 at Eastleigh on Tuesday night.

“I thought he was really bright, he looked dangerous and carried a threat,” said Manning.

“He’s been terrific since he came back for pre-season and I’m looking forward to seeing what he can do.

“He’s a terrific character and plays like his character, with bundles of personality and bundles of energy.

“I’ve been really pleased, he’s come back in really good shape and that speaks volumes about him as a professional.”

Goodrham scored four goals in 44 appearances, in what was a breakthrough campaign last season.

In October, he signed a new deal with the U’s until 2024, with the option of a further year.
