Arsenal's teenage starlet Kathrine Kühl is set to leave the club on loan this month, according to reports in her homeland.

The 20-year-old Danish midfielder has struggled for minutes since joining the club last year and it is thought head coach Jonas Eidevall was eager to allow her to play regular first team football.

And now, according to Danish journalist Arnela Muminović, the Dane is set to link up with her former boss Brian Sorensen at Everton who gave Kühl her debut at just 16-years-old when they pair were at FC Nordsjælland as she looks to up her game time.

One of the highest rated youngsters in Scandinavia, Kühl has featured twice in the Women's Super League (WSL) this season for a combined total of just six minutes and it is thought the Swedish boss Eidevall was eager to ensure she gets more minutes and ideally would have preferred her to get loan time within the WSL.

Everton have found lots of success with the loan system and young players over the past two seasons with the likes of Manchester City's Jess Park and Chelsea's Aggie Beever-Jones growing in stature immeasurably during their time under Sørensen and it is hoped the same can blossom for the young Danish international.

If she to confirm her departure, she would be the second player to leave the Gunners in the last week after full back Noelle Maritz joined Aston Villa on a permanent deal, while Lia Wälti has also been strongly linked with a move to Spanish giants Real Madrid. The club have secured the services of highly rated United States international Emily Fox though after the club bolstered their defensive ranks by confirming her transfer yesterday.
