Chapman has impressed in his spell at Oxford so far

Oxford United's on-loan defender Adam Chapman admits his long-term future may lie away from Sheffield United.

The 19-year-old is on loan from Bramall Lane until the summer and he told BBC Oxford that he may have to leave Yorkshire for first-team football.

"I still have two years left on my deal at Sheffield United," said Chapman

"I do think my future lies elsewhere, as it isn't going my way there at the minute. I'd definitely consider coming down here."

Oxford manager Chris Wilder has spoken highly of the versatile defender and expressed an interest in extending his stay at the Kassam Stadium.

Chapman has played nine games for United so far, in defence and midfield.
