It may come as a surprise to some that Aaron Ramsdale remains at Arsenal as the deadline looms. The 25-year-old has barely featured for Mikel Arteta‘s men this season following the arrival of David Raya.
Few felt that Arsenal needed to sign another number one in the summer. Nevertheless, Arteta decided to roll the dice by bringing Raya in on loan.
Mikel Arteta has told Aaron Ramsdale that he wants him to stay at Arsenal next season
Football Transfers reports that Arsenal intend to make Raya’s move permanent. And thus, some may be expecting Ramsdale to leave in the summer.
Ramsdale Arteta
But the report from Football Transfers claims Arteta has no intention of letting Ramsdale leave unless Arsenal sign another goalkeeper of similar quality. And he has told the England international that he wants him to stay and fight for his place.
Goalkeeper should have major reservations about sticking around
Ramsdale surely cannot consider sticking around unless there is a genuine chance of getting another run in the team.

Raya was really poor in the early weeks following his move. And it seemed that he was lucky to not lose his place.
His form has been better more recently. However, those previous months will leave Ramsdale wary of sticking around.
Ultimately, he would surely love nothing more than to be a success at Arsenal. But he surely cannot watch another season from the sidelines.
