Tottenham will reportedly allow their highly-rated prospect Brandon Austin leave the club on loan during this summer transfer window.

According to the Daily Mail, Spurs are prepared to grant the English goalkeeper a temporary exit to gain first-team experience elsewhere.

It is explained that manager Jose Mourinho has had the 21-year-old around first-team training, but will allow a loan exit due to the fierce competition in his area of the pitch.

The report says that there are a number of clubs from both League One and the Championship that are weighing up offers for him.

TRB’s View:

Austin has previously impressed for Spurs at youth level, but understandably the North London club are now looking to kick on his development and try give him senior minutes.

The English goalkeeper spent the second half of last season out on loan with Danish side Viborg FF, which gave him the first taste of first-team action in his career.

Spurs currently have the likes of Hugo Lloris, Paulo Gazzaniga and Joe Hart on their books, so right now time out on loan is perfect for Austin and a successful season somewhere lower down the English ladder should push him further up the pecking order.
