Duo leave Oldham

admin

The duo were offered new deals by incoming manager Darren Kelly last month but have elected to move on, leaving Latics without two of their most experienced defenders.

Lockwood, 33, had an injury-disrupted campaign last term and made just 12 appearances but the former club captain did offer managerial assistance to caretaker boss Dean Holden towards the end of the campaign.

Fans’ favourite Elokobi, 29, missed the end-of-season run-in through injury himself but played 27 times in his sole year with Oldham, scoring three times.
