Pakistani footballer Otis Khan is on the verge of joining Oldham Athletic Football Club, though the deal has been delayed as the club reopens negotiations with the player.
The news was reported by journalist Samuel Collyer, who indicated that the discussions are ongoing and that the winger will sign for the club on Thursday.
Khan, 28, is expected to join the club in the fifth tier of the English Football Pyramid. His move to Oldham Athletic marks a significant step in his career as he seeks to regain form and stability after a challenging period.
Last season, Otis Khan was loaned from Grimsby Town to Hartlepool United, where he could not make a notable impact. However, since representing Pakistan in their international friendly against Saudi Arabia on June 6, he has been without a club.
Khan’s anticipated move to Oldham Athletic is seen as an opportunity for the versatile left-winger to re-establish himself in English football.
His experience across various clubs in the lower tiers of English football, coupled with his international exposure, makes him a valuable addition to Oldham’s squad as they aim to improve their standing.
The exact terms of the deal remain under discussion, but sources close to the negotiations suggest that both parties are keen to finalize the agreement soon. Fans and analysts alike are eager to see Khan back on the pitch, contributing to Oldham Athletic’s campaign this season.
