HITC Sport understands Colchester are set to sign former Arsenal defender Cohen Bramall.
Former Arsenal defender Cohen Bramall has agreed a deal to join Colchester United on a free transfer, HITC Sport understands.
Bramall is a free agent after leaving Arsenal earlier this summer upon the expiration of his contract at the Emirates.
The full-back has had offers from a number of Championship and League One clubs, but he has decided to move to Colchester in search of regular first-team football.
Bramall is set to sign a two-year deal at Colchester and could go straight into the squad for this weekend’s League Two opener against Port Vale.
The 23-year-old joined Arsenal in January 2017 after impressing on trial, but he failed to make a first-team appearance during his two-and-a-half years with the Gunners.
The left-back had a spell on loan at Birmingham City in the Championship during the 2017/18 season and he made five appearances in his time at St Andrew’s.
