Young Gunners Complete Surprising Deadline-Day Transfer”

Arsenal has announced the loan moves of Kido Taylor-Hart and Billy Vigar to League One side Derby County until the end of the current season. However, Derby has stated that the duo will join their under-21 squad, which is a rare occurrence in the world of football.

The move makes sense as both Taylor-Hart and Vigar have faced limited playing time with the Arsenal under-21s this season and are too old to play for the under-18s. The forwards are in dire need of game time and Derby’s under-21s offer the perfect opportunity, especially with the senior team struggling and sitting bottom of the Premier League 2 with no points from 11 games.

It is worth noting that Derby’s senior squad already has seven loan players, with only five allowed to play in a match, which means Vigar and Taylor-Hart would not have been guaranteed a spot in the senior team. But, if they impress with the under-21s, they could potentially step up later as the five loan players can change from game to game.

In conclusion, while this move may seem unusual, it provides a pathway for both players to play regular youth games with the possibility of first-team football if they perform well.
