Done Deal: Defender poses with shirt after completing Arsenal move

By on January 10, 2017

Arsenal have confirmed their first signing of the January transfer window after announcing the arrival of Cohen Bramall from non-league Hednesford Town.

Bramall has been strongly linked with a move to the Emirates in recent weeks after impressing during a two-day trial at London Colney before Christmas last month.

Widespread media reports last week claimed that the 20-year-old was set to sign a two-and-a-half year deal after we’d agreed a £40,000 deal with Hednesford.

Bramall did an interview with Sky Sports last week where he confirmed that he was close to completing a ‘dream’ move to Arsenal after being spotted by chief scout Brian McDermott.

The club have now finally confirmed the deal has been completed with a statement on Arsenal.com saying:

We have signed young left-back Cohen Bramall from Hednesford Town in the Northern League Premier Division.

The 20-year-old, who impressed on a recent trial, will join up with Steve Gatting and our under-23s squad.

Arsene Wenger told reporters recently that he believes Bramall has what it takes to be the next Ashley Cole so the youngster certainly looks to have a bright future ahead of him.

It’s no surprise that Bramall will be starting his Arsenal career with the U23’s as it’s going to be a big jump from the non-league football he’s been used to but hopefully he can show us what he’s capable of and eventually force his way in to the first team.
