West Ham are ready to send Reece Oxford away on-loan to Germany.

The Mirror says Oxford is joining Borussia Monchengladbach on a season-long loan.

The England prospect, 18, is going to Germany to help his development as manager Slaven Bilic sees the versatile defender as a big part of the Hammers ' future.

Oxford has found his opportunities limited at West Ham despite signing a long-term deal.

After a disappointing loan spell at Championship playoff finalists Reading saw him make just five league appearances, they want to see him go out and get more games under his belt.
