Aaron Ramsdale 'handed Arsenal escape route' as Premier League rivals ready to offer January transfer

Occasional Digest - a story for you

WOLVES could move for Aaron Ramsdale in January.

The Arsenal keeper is hungry for more game time ahead of Euro 2024 – and Saudi clubs are hovering for Molineux No1 Jose Sa.

The Daily Star claim Wolves have put Ramsdale top of their wanted list.

The 25-year-old returned to the Gunners’ side for Saturday’s 1-0 Premier League win at Brentford.

But that was only because summer recruit David Raya was not allowed to play against his parent club.

The suggestion is Wolves fancy a loan deal with an agreement to buy Ramsdale permanently in the summer.

That’s because Molineux manager Gary O’Neil is reportedly willing to sell £40million-rated Sa.

O’Neil has a limited transfer budget to operate as Wolves sit in mid-table.

And he is prepared to offload Sa after wealthy Saudi clubs lined up huge transfer offers as well as a much larger pay packet for the Portugal ace.

Mikel Arteta has praised Ramsdale’s attitude following Raya’s emergence as clear first-choice for the Arsenal chief.

And Arteta as well as his players embraced the stopper after he overcome some shaky moments to keep a clean sheet at the weekend.

There have also been no murmurs of the 25-year-old seeking an exit.

But Ramsdale wants regular regular action to help secure his place in Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions party for next summer’s tournament.

So a departure of some sort in January can’t be ruled out.
