It has been evident since last summer that Aaron Ramsdale no longer fits Mikel Arteta’s plans, despite the fact that the Basque coach was the one who brought him to Arsenal.Last season, Arteta loaned fellow countryman David Raya from Brentford, and this summer, Arsenal made the move permanent, sending a clear message to Ramsdale that his status as the backup goalkeeper wouldn’t change. There were rumors this summer linking him with Newcastle, Southampton, and Nottingham, but none materialized. Now, Wolverhampton has stepped in to offer the England international a lifeline.Wolves are in talks with Arsenal over signing goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale 🧤 pic.twitter.com/HTJZ7fh9ow— Sky Sports News (@SkySportsNews) August 20, 2024 The club from Molineux has contacted Arsenal with the intent to loan Ramsdale with an option to buy next summer. Additionally, Wolves have offered to cover a significant portion of Ramsdale’s wages during the loan period. The decision now rests with Arsenal, who would prefer to sell Ramsdale outright rather than send him out on loan, but no such offers have been forthcoming. The London club is asking around €40 million for the backup goalkeeper or about €8 million for the loan. With the transfer window closing soon, this seems like the best option for both the Gunners and Ramsdale, who would once again get regular playing time, considering that José Sá at Wolves is not an unbeatable competitor.##NAJAVA_MECA_8284382##Meanwhile, Arsenal has already secured an agreement with Spanish goalkeeper Joan García from Espanyol to bring him in if Ramsdale leaves the club.
