West Ham United have reportedly decided to loan out defender Reece Oxford for the 2017-18 campaign.
Since starring on his Premier League debut against Arsenal in August 2015, Oxford has struggled for appearances with the Hammers and he recently endured a similar battle to feature during a temporary spell at Reading.
However, according to The Mirror, manager Slaven Bilic continues to see the 18-year-old as a key part of the club's future and he intends to loan him to German outfit Borussia Monchengladbach.
The transfer may be seen as a risk with Monchengladbach regulars in the top half of the Bundesliga table, but Chelsea youngster Andreas Christensen has recently flourish during a similar spell at the club.
The England Under-20 international - who does not turn 19 until December - has a contract at the London Stadium until 2021.
