# Reece Oxford sought after by Eibar

Reece Oxford is reportedly the recipient of SD Eibar’s affections, with the La Liga outfit keen on bringing the versatile youngster in on a loan deal.

The 19-year-old is unlikely to feature in manager Manuel Pellegrini’s plans this season, and a loan move has dominated any discussions surrounding Oxford’s immediate future as a West Ham player.

Making his Hammers debut in 2015, Oxford has received three loan opportunities away from East London since that first appearance. Reading welcomed the versatile defender in 2016, and the 2017-18 season saw the London-native get a chance abroad, as part of Borussia Mönchengladbach’s setup.

Another foreign opportunity may be about to come Oxford’s way through Eibar, [with Marca claiming](https://www.marca.com/en/football/spanish-football/2018/08/27/5b83c6dee2704e47808b45e9.html) the Basque club keen on bringing the England U20 star to northern Spain.

In his time at Gladbach, Oxford impressed in the eight appearances he made in a supporting role.

The 6’3 Oxford, who can be deployed as a central defender or a defensive midfielder, has yet to appear in the Premier League this season.
