Crystal Palace man is reportedly wanted by League One side Oxford United

Crystal Palace defender Tayo Adaramola is reportedly on the radar of Oxford United.

The Eagles are trying to fix up a loan move for the youngster in the January transfer window.

Adaramola, 18, joined Coventry City on loan for this season but returned from his stint in the Championship earlier this month.

According to reporter Alan Nixon on his Patreon, Crystal Palace are looking to find him a new home, with League One side Oxford credited with an interest (see tweet below):

Crystal Palace prospect

Palace will want Adaramola getting exposure to senior football, especially with his move to the Sky Blues not working out.

The Dublin-born man started out with local sides St. Kevin’s Boys and St Mochta’s before heading over to England to pursue his football career.

He moved to Selhurst Park back in 2015 and has since risen up through the academy, becoming a key player at various youth levels along the way.

Adaramola was handed his first professional contract in 2020 and has made two first-team appearances to date.

However, the Republic of Ireland U21 international may well depart on loan again this winter and Oxford has been mentioned as a possible destination.

The U’s are 11th in the third tier table right now and are two points off the play-offs.

“He has that stature as a man and he has that character that you can approach him.

“He demands from you, he expects you to perform, to get better and raise that bar. He sets those standards because he’s a winner.”
