Academy players Jack Jebb, Austin Lipman, Brandon Ormonde-Ottewill and Josh Vickers, are leaving Arsenal Read more at www.arsenal.com/news/Get in there Danny ! The 3 outfield players have all played for England at youth level. I'm sure there are lots more academy youngsters being released by various clubs who would like a chance to rebuild their career at an ambitious club like ours. |

Can give you a little heads up on 2 of the mentioned players as I saw them play last year supporting concord. Austin Lipman played for boreham wood in the fa trophy against concord, that was only due to them resting their 2 main strikers! Looked a threat but went missing far to easily during the game and needs a tall hard working striker as a partner looked like to me.
Josh vickers was concords keeper on loan for the last 3/4 of the season and I can honestly say I do not know how arsenal have released him! Was unbelievable for concord and won us a lot of points! Solid from crosses, catches a lot, great distribution, good organisation and his best part was his shot stopping! Took some special strikes to beat him! Who ever picks josh up has a great goalkeeper on their hands.

Arsenal have links with Boreham Wood - their manager is an ex Gunner & The Arsenal Ladies play at Meadow Park.
Don't be surprised to see more Arsenal academy players turn out for Boreham Wood.
The Gunners have a full complement of 'keepers with Cech, Szczesny, Ospina & Martinez + another 4 in the academy.
Vickers would provide good competition for Nathan.
Brandon has joined Swindon I believe.
Jebb is a creative midfielder who was on loan at Stevenage.
