The Villans have been pursuing young talents in the current transfer window and they have now secured another bright prospect.

Sousa has been rated as one of the best teenagers in the Gunners academy, but he has been unable to break into the first-team plans.

The Gunners have now agreed to sanction the sale of the left-back and more details over the deal should be known by tomorrow.

Sousa has already undergone his medical with the West Midlands outfit and it is only a matter of time before the move is official.

Unai Emery 's side are set to loan out the youngster to Plymouth for the rest of the season before integrating him into their plans.

Aside from Sousa, a few more academy graduates are anticipated to leave the Gunners before the transfer window closes on February 1.
