adminINJURY CRISIS DEEPENS:
Oxford United hit by major fitness blow as KEY star rules out ahead of daunting Charlton clash with selection fears growing
Oxford United have been dealt a setback ahead of their Championship clash with Charlton Athletic today after confirmation that midfielder Brian De Keersmaecker will miss the game through injury.
The Belgian midfielder is currently sidelined with a shoulder problem that required surgery, ruling him out for an extended period and leaving him unavailable for the important fixture at the Kassam Stadium.
Oxford United will therefore have to cope without one of their midfield options as they prepare to face the Addicks.
Manager Matt Bloomfield is already dealing with a number of fitness concerns within his squad. In addition to De Keersmaecker’s absence, academy graduate Tyler Goodrham is also unavailable after undergoing ankle surgery that has ruled him out for the remainder of the season.

Despite those setbacks, Oxford head into the match with growing confidence after recent positive results in the Championship.
Bloomfield’s side will be hoping their available squad can maintain momentum and secure another crucial result against a Charlton team that has been showing strong form in recent weeks.
The encounter between Oxford and Charlton is set to take place at the Kassam Stadium as both sides battle for valuable points in the Championship standings.
