It has been agreed 'in principle' that Matt Bloomfield will join Wycombe Wanderers as their new manager.

Colchester United have released a statement saying The Chairboys have acted quickly, following the departure of Gareth Ainsworth, who has gone to QPR.

Therefore, the former player and coach is heading back to Buckinghamshire.

We are hearing that the relevant paperwork is expected to be completed and signed imminently, but all aspects of the move have been agreed between the two clubs.

Bloomfield joined Colchester as Head Coach back in October 2022.

The club say the search for a new U's Head Coach will begin immediately, and any further news will be announced in due course.
