Arsenal are planning to send at least eight young players away on-loan next season.

Jeorge Bird's Arsenal youth website reports Swedish superkid Nikolaj Moller will be amongst the players who will be sent away to accelerate their development.

Midfielder Ben Cottrell, who made his first-team debut last season, is also set to go on loan for the first time, as will right-back Ryan Alebiosu.

Others who have been made available for loan include George Lewis, Jonathan Dinzeyi and Tim Akinola, all regulars with Steve Bould's U23 team last term.

Defender Harry Clarke, who impressed at Oldham Athletic this season, is set to go on loan again along with Zak Swanson, whose spell at MVV Maastricht was cut short due to injury.
