Owen Oseni signs for Argyle

Argyle have signed striker Owen Oseni. 

The athletic forward joins from St Mirren for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-year contract. 

Ireland-born Oseni, 22, made his debut for Waterford, before moving over to England to join Derby County’s Academy. Whilst with the Rams, he had loan spells with Nuneaton Borough and Rushall Olympic, and then moved to Gateshead in the summer of 2024. 

Oseni scored freely in the National League, bagging 13 goals in 24 games, before a move to St Mirren in January. He found minutes hard to come by north of the border, but finished the season still in the top 20 goalscorers in the National League, having only played half of the campaign. 

Argyle Head Coach Tom Cleverley said: “It’s great to have Owen with us. His form with Gateshead shows that he is a player who knows where the goal is. He scored a variety of goals for them and is still at an age where he has a lot of potential for improvement. We think being with us at Argyle gives us a great opportunity to develop him as a player.”

Head of Football Operations David Fox added: “It is important we put together a portfolio of forwards with a range of attributes. Our data shows that Owen offers an exceptional physical output – he is strong, quick and powerful. 

“We will always look to add people who we feel will suit our style of play, and Owen will do that. We are also bringing him in with an eye to how we can improve the qualities he already has. I look forward to watching him grow in a green shirt.”

Owen will wear squad number 18. The transfer is subject to EFL approval and international clearance.
