Milton Keynes Dons Football Club, usually abbreviated to MK Dons, is a professional association football club based in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. The team will compete in EFL League Two, the fourth tier of the English football league system, for the 2023–24 season, following relegation from League One in 2023. The club was founded in 2004, following Wimbledon F.C.'s controversial relocation to Milton Keynes from south London, when it adopted its present name, badge and home colours.
Wimbledon Football Club was an English football club formed in Wimbledon, south-west London, in 1889 and based at Plough Lane from 1912 to 1991. Founded as Wimbledon Old Centrals, the club were a non-League team for most of their history. Nicknamed "the Dons" and latterly also "the Wombles", they won eight Isthmian League titles, the FA Amateur Cup in 1963 and three successive Southern League championships between 1975 and 1977, and were then elected to the Football League. The team rose quickly from obscurity during the 1980s and were promoted to the then top-flight First Division in 1986, just four seasons after being in the Fourth Division.

Meanwhile, Dons' reserve-team striker Julien Hornuss has held crunch talks with Wilson to find out if he features in the manager's plans. The 19-year-old Frenchman, who was signed by former Dons' boss Stuart Murdoch in the summer of 2004, has not broken into the first-team set-up this season despite bagging four goals in five reserve appearances so far.
The Dons say they are waiting to see how 19-year-old Hornuss gets on in Spain before making a final decision on his future. Wilson said: "He's gone on trial to Spain for two games at the moment. "He's gone to a third division club out there, and if things go well we'll discuss it then, but we'll just wait and see what happens. "But he's still under contract with us until the end of the season."
Reserve team striker Julien Hornuss has been released by the Dons after failing to break into the first team. The young Frenchman is seeking a move to a new club in Spain.
