Gabby Agbonlahor has indicated that Aaron Ramsdale may be contemplating a move in the January transfer window to enhance his chances of securing a place in the England squad for Euro 2024.
While Ramsdale is considered one of the top goalkeepers for England, the competition within the national team is intense, making it challenging to secure a spot in the Euro squad.
One crucial factor in earning a place in the national team is regular playing time at the club level, which Ramsdale has struggled to obtain lately. At Arsenal, David Raya has taken over as the first-choice goalkeeper, making it difficult for Ramsdale to regain his position in the team.
Ramsdale was on the verge of becoming England’s number one goalkeeper before losing his starting role at Arsenal. However, his limited game time raises concerns about his chances of making it to the Euros.
Agbonlahor has suggested that Ramsdale may have considered leaving Arsenal in January to improve his prospects of representing England in the tournament. Agbonlahor expressed his view to Football Insider, saying, “Ramsdale knows now that his career and chances of going to the Euros with England could well depend on him moving in January.”
Ramsdale’s reputation as a dependable goalkeeper could make him an attractive option for several clubs if he becomes available for transfer. However, the need for a reliable goalkeeper at Arsenal might also see Ramsdale returning to the starting role soon, as David Raya’s suitability as the permanent number one is in question.
