Arsenal youngster Cohen Bramall set for season-long loan switch away with Sparta Rotterdam eyeing winger

The Gunners prepare to loan out the 21-year-old starlet to further his top-flight experience, despite an impressive pre-season

ARSENAL are reportedly ready to send youngster Cohen Bramall out on loan next season in pursuit of first-team football.

Dutch side Sparta Rotterdam have been strongly linked with the pacey wing-back this summer.

Regardless of his impressive pre-season campaign, the youngster is expected to be farmed out to the Eredivisie - according to Goal.

Bramall recently made his Gunners debut in front of 80,000 fans as they beat Sydney 2-0 at the ANZ Stadium.

A number of Championship clubs have voiced their interest in the defender, but a season-long stint in the Netherlands looks probable.

Bramall shot to prominence following his fairy-tale rise from non-league football to the Premier League.

After being spotted by Arsenal scout Brian McDermott last December, Bramall signed from Northern Premier League side Hednesford Town.

The 21-year-old completed his move to the Emirates for a fee of £40,000 in January after impressing during his trial period.

Arsenal's new signing Sead Kolasinac is expected to become a first-team starter, which would leave Bramall spectating from the sidelines.

Nacho Monreal also provides competition for the wing-back position at Arsenal.

Sparta Rotterdam are looking to bolster their defence after narrowly avoiding relegation last season.
