Benik Afobe has agreed to join League One side Huddersfield Town on loan until January, Young Guns has learnt.
The 17-year-old, who scored 11 goals in 13 appearances last season as the Under 18′s retained the Premier Academy League, will link up with Huddersfield later this week. Arsène Wenger and Pat Rice have both held discussions with Afobe and decided he was ready for league football.
The powerful front-man is currently enjoying his first season as a regular in the Reserve team, where he has been operating in an unfamiliar right wing role. However, its a position he’s had success in, playing their for England Under 17′s as they won the European Championships last summer.
Afobe, who has two years left to run on his current contract, could feature in Town’s weekend clash against Sheffield Wednesday.
