Arsenal open to selling Aaron Ramsdale next summer
Aaron Ramsdale is now back-up goalkeeper at Arsenal
According to reports, Aaron Ramsdale will be sold by Arsenal at the end of the current campaign.
This is in line with a recent story from Football Insider, which states that Mikel Arteta's decision to elevate David Raya to the team's first choice has led to the Gunners splitting ways with the English stopper.
Ramsdale, 25, lost his starting position after Raya arrived in the summer and is now rumoured to want to leave the Emirates after failing to start any of Arsenal's previous nine league and Champions League games.

Ramsdale, who was recently rumoured to a surprise move to rival Chelsea, is reportedly keen to find a new club that will give him more first-team games, especially since his boss isn't showing any indications of bringing him back.
With four years remaining on his contract and a current worth of approximately £30 million (TM), Arsenal will know that they have the upper hand in any future discussions. However, if they price the custodian out of a summer transfer, they run the risk of upsetting the dynamic within the team.
Ramsdale, who holds four senior international caps, joined from Sheffield United less than two years ago. In 84 games across all competitions, he has maintained 31 clean sheets.
Arteta will still be under pressure to demonstrate that he made the proper choice by then. Raya needs to demonstrate that he is an improvement over Ramsdale, who has been Arsenal's starting custodian for the past two seasons and has been rather steady.
