Ogunneye, a London-born defender, will join the League Two club in Wales and reunite with Dave Hughes, who was previously the Under-21s assistant manager at Manchester United.

Ogunneye expressed his excitement about joining Newport County, citing Hughes as a key factor in his decision.

“Working with Dave Hughes at Manchester United was a great experience, and I'm looking forward to playing under his guidance again,” Ogunneye said.

Ogunneye sees this loan as an opportunity to gain senior football experience and is eager to contribute to the team's success.

He has already met with the squad and is impressed with their willingness to work hard and set high standards.
