FORMER Colchester United loanee Owura Edwards has joined Scottish Premiership side Ross County on loan from Championship side Bristol City.
The 21-year-old, who made 13 appearances for the U's after joining them in January, has joined the Scottish team on a season-long loan.
Ross County boss Malky Mackay told the club's website: โOwura is a player that our recruitment department spent a significant amount of time tracking and during that process it was very clear that he is someone that would be a great addition to our group.
"At 21, he has gone out and proven himself across the EFL levels, really learning about the rigours of menโs football and that is great credit to him.
