Hoyte joins Brighton and Hove Albion on loan

Young defender Gavin Hoyte has today joined League One side Brighton & Hove Albion on loan for one month.
 
England Youth International Hoyte had a very busy 2008/09 season, in which he was named Reserve team captain for the campaign by Neil Banfield.
 
Convincing performances in the second-string earned Gavin his first-team debut in the Carling Cup against Sheffield United in September 2008, which was followed by further appearances in the League Cup against Wigan Athletic and Burnley.
 
The 19-year-old made his Premier League debut against Manchester City at Eastlands in November. However, the Club's elimination from the Carling Cup opened the door for a loan move. Arsenal's training ground neighbours Watford were more than happy to oblige and the versatile defender made 10 appearances during a short-term stint at Vicarage Road.
 
In addition to club football, Gavin has also been a regular for England Under-19s, helping the young Lions' qualify for the European Championships. In December, Gavin, brother of former-Gunner Justin, put pen to paper on a long-term contract with the Club.
 
Gavin will join up immediately with Russell Slade's squad in preparation for their match at Yeovil Town on Saturday.
 
Everyone at Arsenal Football Club wishes Gavin the best of luck during his time with Brighton & Hove Albion
