Transfers

Kilkenny joins on a two-year contract in perhaps Swindon's most intriguing business of the window to date. The 24-year-old, typically more of a sitting midfielder than an advanced eight, has previously shown plenty of promise at Championship level.

Tshimanga will join Town on loan next week, in a much-needed boost for head coach Mark Kennedy. The 27-year-old forward has been holding out for a move to League Two, having initially seen his parent club reject Swindon's advances.

The Moonraker understands Swindon are yet to receive an acceptable, formal offer for Khan, despite various rumours linking him with a host of clubs over the past 12 months.

Town are seeking depth in wide positions, to support the wing-backs currently in the squad - Tunmise Sobowale, Rosaire Longelo and Joel McGregor.

Cotterill's arrival helps establish a pattern of Swindon targeting players who are on their second loan away from their parent clubs, rather than drafting youngsters without senior experience.

As predicted by The Moonraker, the defender has been unsuccessful in his attempt to win a contract in Wiltshire during a trial period. Rowe spent two weeks with the Robins during pre-season, taking part in a handful of friendly matches.

Khan appears to have fallen down the pecking order at Swindon and the club may look to offload him and raise a fee, with his contract understood to expire in the summer of 2025.

Aguiar was a main target for Adam Hinshelwood, who has made a habit of signing his old players for the Minstermen. The midfielder struggled to make a breakthrough in Wiltshire after signing from Worthing in 2021.
