Ex-Northampton loanee a free agent after release from Oxford United
Jordan Thorniley is now a free agent after he reached an agreement with Oxford United to terminate his contract.
The 29-year-old defender played 22 times for Northampton after joining the club at the start of the season, but it was decided by all parties last month to end his loan early. Kevin Nolan later revealed that Thorniley was expected to miss a number of weeks with injury.
He was set to be out of contract in the summer but an announcement by Oxford shortly after the transfer window closed confirmed that he has left the club and is now a free agent.
A club statement on Tuesday said: “Oxford United can confirm Jordan Thorniley’s contract has been terminated by mutual consent. Jordan leaves after two spells at the club, initially signing on loan in the 2021/22 season, and then returning permanently in June 2023.
“Over his time at United, the defender made 46 appearances and scored one goal. Everyone at Oxford United would like to wish Jordan all the best for the future and thank him for his service to the club.”
