Oxford United have made their first summer signing with the addition of striker, Ruben Rodrigues.
The 26-year-old, who is out of contract at the end of the month, netted 19 times and added 15 assists as Notts County won promotion to League Two via the playoffs.
It is believed that the U’s saw off competition in the shape of Cardiff, Derby and Barnsley.
Speaking to the club’s official website, Rodrigues said: “It’s an exciting move for me. I loved my time at Notts County, and last season was amazing, but this is a chance to test myself at a higher level.
“The way that the coach wants to play is similar to the way I like to play. The training facilities are great, the club has big ambitions, and I can’t wait to get started.”
Head coach Liam Manning added: “Ruben is a player that we watched a lot last season and he was involved in so many goals, both scoring and creating.
“We feel there is even more to come from him and can’t wait to see him in pre-season and to start working with him.”
United’s head of recruitment, Ed Waldron, added: “There were a lot of clubs looking at him, which was hardly surprising given the way he has played for the last two seasons.
“For him to choose to come to Oxford, based on the way we want to play and where we see the club going, is a fantastic endorsement for us.
“Our work continues behind the scenes to keep building the squad, and this is a really exciting first arrival of the summer.”
