Former Gunners starlet eyes MLS switch

Sky Sports understands former Arsenal defender Tom Cruise could be set for a move to America with New England Revolution. The 20-year-old has linked up with the MLS outfit for a two-week training period as he bids to win a move to America. Cruise is a free agent after leaving Arsenal last summer upon the expiration of his contract. The versatile defender made one first-team appearance for Arsenal in the Champions League against Olympiakos after coming through the ranks at the club. Cruise also enjoyed a successful loan spell at Carlisle last season before leaving Arsenal. A number of clubs are thought to have shown an interest in Cruise, but the former England Under 19 international is ready to continue his career in America. Cruise is expected to feature in two friendly matches for the Revolution against LA Galaxy and New York Red Bulls over this week as they assess his fitness before securing a deal for the player.
