The U’s ended 17th in the 2024/25 campaign, their first season back in the second tier of English football for 25 years. United recorded 53 points, but Brown says that with three more wins for example, the club would’ve been in a stronger position to challenge for not just the top half, but perhaps even the play-off places.

The 23-year-old made eight appearances for the U’s in all competitions, scoring once. That goal came from the penalty spot on his United debut, a 3-0 victory at home against Fulham Under-21s in the EFL Trophy in September 2018. Spasov played six times during the 2022/23 season, including three substitute appearances in Sky Bet League One, and was released by the U’s in May 2023.

Simon Eastwood and Matt Ingram in the goalkeeping department, plus defenders Ciaron Brown and Sam Long, have also agreed new contracts. As a striker though, Harris is arguably the most divisive of those players among the U’s fanbase. It comes with the territory of being a centre forward. Goals win games, and therefore strikers are often the easiest target after a negative result. But it’s my opinion that Harris is deserving of his new deal.

MARK Harris has signed a new contract to extend his stay at Oxford United. The 26-year-old striker was set to see his previous deal expire next summer, however the exact length of the fresh contract hasn’t been disclosed. Harris joined United in July 2023 as a free agent after leaving Cardiff City, and in his debut campaign, he scored 19 goals in 55 games across all competitions, with the season culminating in promotion via the Sky Bet League One play-offs.
