OXFORD United have been linked with a loan move for young Scottish right back Max Johnston.
The U’s are among four clubs interested in the 20-year-old, according to Sky Sports News journalist Anthony Joseph.
Fellow Sky Bet Championship side Luton Town, plus League One outfit Birmingham City, have made loan enquiries, Joseph said in a post on Twitter.

Johnston came through the youth set-up at Motherwell, and had loan spells at Queen of the South and Cove Rangers.
He joined Sturm Graz on a four-year deal last summer, and completed the Austrian Bundesliga and Austrian Cup double last season.
United have already signed one right back this summer, with Peter Kioso arriving from Rotherham United for an undisclosed fee, and also have Sam Long in that position.
