Arsenal are set to loan out striker Tyreece John-Jules again next season, potentially to a Championship club, according to Goal. 

The talented frontman was loaned out to League One side Lincoln City in January and scored once in seven games for the side before he suffered a broken bone in his foot and returned to the Gunners in March. 

It came after the England under-19 international had trained with the first-team both under Unai Emery and interim boss Freddie Ljungberg. 

Upon his return from his spell at Sincil Bank, Mikel Arteta spoke warmly of John-Jules to Football.London, calling him ‘powerful’ and suggesting he could play in a number of attacking roles. 

“I think he can do both. When he was with us I was impressed with him, his understanding of the game, how he links with the people around him, how powerful he is. He has got a goal in him.”

Now, Goal is suggesting that the next step for the striker is another loan move, with the Championship the aim. The report also suggests there is ‘genuine hope’ that John-Jules will soon be a first-team fixture at Arsenal. 

The 19-year-old is yet to make his first-team debut for Arsenal and has plenty of competition with Eddie Nketiah and Folarin Balogun also trying to emerge from the Arsenal youth-team picture into regular first-team football in North London. 

It seems that the Gunners will be following a similar pathway to the one they had with Nketiah last summer when he was loaned out to Leeds United. 

Hopefully, that can lead to a future at Arsenal in the long-term.
