Arsenal set to put 25-year-old star up for sale at end of season

Posted by

Arsenal are reportedly preparing to sell Aaron Ramsdale at the end of the season.

That’s according to a recent report from Football Insider, who claims the Gunners are set to part ways with the English shot-stopper following Mikel Arteta’s decision to make David Raya the side’s number one.

Losing his place following Raya’s arrival in the summer, Ramsdale, 25, who has failed to start any of Arsenal’s last nine league and Champions League games, is now thought to want out of the Emirates.

And with his manager showing no signs of reinstating him, Ramsdale, who has been linked with a surprise switch to rivals Chelsea, is thought to be desperate to find a new club that are willing to offer him more first team football.

Currently valued at around £30 million (TM) as well as having up to four years left on his contract, Arsenal will know that when it comes to future negotiations, the ball is in their court, but pricing the goalkeeper out of a summer move could risk unsettling the squad’s dynamic.

Since joining from Sheffield United just over two years ago, Ramsdale, who has four senior international caps to his name, has kept 31 clean sheets in 84 appearances in all competitions.

  1. It will be a very big mistake If Arsenal let Ramsdale leave in the Summer . He is even better than Raya in many aspects of the game. .So Arteta and Edu should beware.

  2. Goal keeping coach comes from Brentford, he bends the managers ear to get Raya. Raya comes to Arsenal. So now with the goalkeeper coach having Arteta’s ear what happens if Arteta now realises he has made a mistake and picks Ramsdale. What trust has Ramsdale got in the goalkeeper coach. It is basically comes down to this Ramsdale is sold, or Raya and the keeper coach leave the club.

  3. Stupid Arteta. Tribalism has started in arsenalfc and that’s the beginning of his failure.

  4. Ramsdale must stay. He is popular in the dressing room, a firm fan favorite not to mention a brilliant keeper.

  5. Arteta must be stupid, you’ve a good keeper & then bench him for a loanee keeper. This is highest mistake a manager can make. RAYA have cost of games this season & I’ve not seen him winning any game for us this season. RAMSDALE should stay.

  6. The reason he is picking Raya each week is because he wants to keep Raya happy so that he agrees to join Arsenal at the end of his one year loan contract. If he keeps changing GoalKeepers, then Raya will not want to sign for Arsenal at the end of the year. The rotation of the two GoalKeepers will only start once we are assured of Rayas 4 year contract. Now do you all get it? So stop with the nonsense about Ramsdale leaving. Arteta and Edu know what they are doing.

  7. for me,i dont think raya shows the same passion as ramsdale for one thing,raya has showed more mistakes in a shorter period plus the fact that the coach knows raya from their brentford days,am gutted the way ramsdale is being treated by arteta
    allways rated ramsdale,not so sure about raya in an arsenal jersey,think arteta has made a rod for his own back,no wonder chelsea are sniffing around ramsdale is better than any of their last 5 or so keepers, arsenal please sort this mess out.

  8. Arsenal is trying to make an important sale to balance the books that were upset by the unnecessary purchase of Havertz. Now there’s no ther player they could sell to do so. that’s why Ramsdale will leave. It’s not because Arteta doesn’t believe in him.
    Balogun left in the same manner. it wasn’t Arteta

  9. Let arteta give the chance to use the two goalkeepers, the season is just starting and we have plenty of matches to play.
