“I’ve endured so many pains and Arteta hasn’t been fair enough with me,now is time for me to move forward because Fans are not treating me right”- Arsenal outcast Aaron Ramsdale gives a farewell interview as he revealed he’s ready to leave Arsenal this summer
Reports have emerged suggesting that Aaron Ramsdale is contemplating a departure from Arsenal once the summer transfer window swings open. The 25-year-old shot-stopper, who arrived at the Emirates Stadium from Sheffield United for a hefty sum of £30 million plus add-ons in the summer of 2021 during Mikel Arteta’s tenure, has reportedly set his sights on a new footballing adventure.
Ramsdale swiftly cemented his position as Arsenal’s primary goalkeeper, showcasing his talents in all 38 Premier League fixtures last season, as the Gunners mounted a challenge against Manchester City for the English crown. Since his arrival from Bramall Lane at the onset of the 2021-2022 campaign, the English custodian has featured prominently in 88 matches across various competitions for Arsenal.
However, according to insights from Football Insider, Ramsdale has reached a pivotal juncture in his career and has purportedly made up his mind regarding his future beyond the current season. The report suggests that the England international harbors aspirations of departing the North London club in pursuit of greater playing time, given his limited opportunities in the ongoing campaign.
With his eye on securing regular first-team action at the highest echelons of the sport, Ramsdale reportedly views the upcoming summer transfer window as the opportune moment to explore fresh challenges elsewhere. Amidst these developments, several Premier League outfits and European clubs are said to be closely monitoring the goalkeeper’s situation, preparing to formalize their interest with concrete bids when the transfer window commences.
Ramsdale’s role between the sticks has witnessed a shift following the loan acquisition of David Raya from Brentford last summer, relegating the former Sheffield United star to a secondary position. In the current season, Ramsdale has found himself handed starting opportunities on just five occasions in the Premier League, mustering two clean sheets.
His most recent appearance for Arsenal came in the FA Cup third round encounter against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, where the North London outfit succumbed to a 2-0 defeat. Notably, Ramsdale’s last Premier League outing dates back to Arsenal’s 1-0 victory over Raya’s parent club Brentford on November 25th.
