What’s happening with Aaron Ramsdale? £24m star Arteta loved now fourth-choice in Championship

Aaron Ramsdale has dropped from being Arsenal's primary goalkeeper to the fourth-choice shot-stopper at Championship side Southampton. After Mikel Arteta replaced him with David Raya at Arsenal, Ramsdale transferred permanently to Southampton in a deal worth up to £25 million. However, the Saints suffered relegation from the Premier League, and a subsequent loan spell at Newcastle United failed to result in a permanent transfer.

Upon his return to Southampton, head coach Tonda Eckert placed Ramsdale behind Daniel Peretz, George Long, and Jamie Jones in the goalkeeping pecking order. Ramsdale reportedly turned down temporary departures during the summer due to family reasons and plans to fight for his place until the January transfer window.
