“I want to play in champions leagur” £50m premier league star sends clear message to Mikel Arteta and Arsenal board amid summer transfer talk
Arsenal star Aaron Ramsdale has indicated he “never” wants to go another year playing as little as he did in the 2023-24 campaign.
The 26-year-old who has made England’s Euro 2024 squad has been linked to a transfer this summer after falling behind David Raya in the pecking order at the Emirates.
The likes of Chelsea, Aston Villa and West Ham are just three clubs that have been linked with a move for the England goalkeeper – and he has dropped a massive hint that he is keen to leave the Gunners at some point this transfer window.
Speaking on his future at the Emirate Ramsdale told talkSPORT: “No footballer wants to not play. I’ve had a tough year personally not playing and I never want to do that again.”
He also said it has been “tough” to lose his spot to David Raya but is looking hopeful towards representing his country in Germany.
Ramsdale added: “I’ve got the greatest honour, the greatest badge on my chest, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again if I play a minute or no minutes [and England win the Euros], it will be the pinnacle for me, the best day ever.
“For the time being I’m probably one of the happiest 26, 27 men in England and hopefully we can make not just us but however many millions at home the happiest as well.”
Ramsdale is far too good to be sitting on the bench every week and he must have hated it last season – there are some big clubs interested in a potential deal – and if anyone gets the man, they will be getting a very good shot-stopper.
ARSENAL have a number of players that they will be selling this summer – we are fully expecting him to depart the Emirates over the next few months
