Medical Checks Underway
Malcolm Ebiowei, the dynamic winger from Crystal Palace, is currently undergoing a medical at Oxford United, indicating an imminent loan move to the ambitious Championship side.
Seasoned Championship Talent
After a brief stint in Belgium with RWD Molenbeek, where he contributed with an assist across five appearances, Ebiowei is poised to bring his talents back to England. His journey has seen him rise through the ranks, starting his senior career with Derby before his spell at Crystal Palace, where he clocked up 57 minutes in five senior outings.
From Free Transfer to Championship Prospect
Ebiowei’s move to Palace in 2022 on a free transfer followed financial troubles at Derby. With 28 Championship appearances to his name, including spells with the Rams and Hull City, he’s notched up one goal and two assists, showcasing his potential in the second tier.
Versatility on the Wing
The England Under-20 international is known for his versatility on the field, primarily occupying the right wing but also capable of making an impact as an attacking midfielder or on the left flank.
Oxford United’s Ambitious Off-Season
