Charlton Athletic release ex-Bristol Rovers loanee Erhun Oztumer

Charlton Athletic will not be offering Erhun Oztumer a new deal this summer, as per their official club website.

Oztumer joined the Addicks in 2019 but couldn’t stop them from being relegated from the Championship in his first year at the club.

They then let him leave for Bristol Rovers on loan this season as they trimmed down the size of their squad after relegation from the second tier.

Oztumer is experienced in the Football League and could prove to a be a decent signing for someone on a free over the coming months.
