A long-time starter in Arsenal’s goal, Aaron Ramsdale was relegated to the bench by Mikel Arteta last season, to the detriment of David Raya. A difficult situation to digest for the England international (5 caps), who chose to leave the Gunners this summer. Despite interest from Wolverhampton, the Stoke-on-Trent native will join Southampton, according to The Athletic. THE Saints have reached an agreement with Arsenal for the transfer of the 26-year-old goalkeeper for a fee of 29.6 million euros, including bonuses.
With two years left on his contract, Ramsdale is therefore very close to leaving Arsenal to relaunch his career. For their part, the English vice-champions have already targeted his replacement. According to the English media, it is Joan García, a 23-year-old goalkeeper currently playing for Espanyol Barcelona. He was in the Spain squad, which won the gold medal at the Paris Olympics in early August.
