Huddersfield Town transfer latest: Full-back joins ex-Terriers contingent at Oxford United

The Dutchman, who joined the club just over a year ago, has joined the U’s on loan. The second-tier outfit have been obligation to buy inserted into the deal.

He joins Michal Helik and Brodie Spencer at the Kassam Stadium.

Roosken made 40 appearances for own in all competitions, scoring three goals and registering eight assists. The recent signing of Bali Mumba pushed him down the pecking order.

Head coach Liam Manning commented: "Ruben’s departure is in the best interests of all concerned.

"Given our strength in depth on the left, he was unlikely to be satisfied with his playing time here, and a deal has been agreed that allows him to join another good club. We’re pleased with what we have available to us in that area of the pitch, and I’m happy that we’ve been to reach a conclusion that gives both ourselves and Ruben a satisfying outcome.

Sporting Director Chris Markham added: "Following the arrival of Bali Mumba and Mickel Miller’s return to fitness, we knew that we had an area of the squad that was congested with talent, especially with a number of other players available to us comfortable in that position.

"Working closely with Ruben and his representatives to find a solution in our collective interest, Oxford United displayed a strong desire in making this deal happen.

"Managing our squad effectively allows us flexibility in both the short and long-term to make changes when and where we see fit. With the terms of the deal including a clause to make the transfer permanent, all parties have clarity moving forward and we wish Ruben the best of luck with his new side.”
