Everton could explore the idea of signing Aaron Ramsdale on loan in January with the 25-year-old Arsenal star’s future a bit uncertain.
Fichajes has listed Aaron Ramsdale as a possible target for Everton in the January window, as the Toffees are reportedly looking to bring the 25-year-old Arsenal star on loan. The goalkeeper’s immediate future with the Gunners has come under scrutiny, but any move to Merseyside may not happen.
Everton are still in a difficult financial position and may have to make sales before they can balance their books. Some players in their squad could move out in the January window after failing to leave in the summer.
Amadou Onana and Jordan Pickford are a few of those who would guarantee a big enough transfer fee, with the latter attracting considerable interest. In the scenario of the England No.1 leaving, Everton would like to bring his national team deputy and 25-year-old Arsenal star Aaron Ramsdale as his replacement.
Ramsdale has endured a difficult period in his Arsenal career. Mikel Arteta has chosen summer arrival David Raya in important games, although the England international did play on Wednesday in the EFL Cup clash with Brentford.
Pundits like Jamie Carragher have suggested Ramsdale could leave the club if Arsenal had the choice to sell one of their keepers. As things stand, most experts predict that Raya will eventually become the club’s undisputed No.1, leaving Ramsdale’s future up in the air.
Ramsdale only signed a new deal back in May, and Arsenal will not look to sell him this season, especially not in January. He does have the interest of Bayern Munich and Chelsea, as per reports generated last week. There will come a time when many other clubs also make approaches when it becomes clear that Arsenal are open to selling him.
However, earlier stories insisted Ramsdale is ready to fight for his place and remains unfazed by the chatter surrounding his future. Everton are the latest club to show an interest in signing him, although they may not be able to afford a permanent transfer, especially in January.
The report suggests the Toffees could explore a loan deal for the 25-year-old Arsenal star if his situation continues to deteriorate in North London. Ramsdale may not fancy a move to Everton as it will certainly be a step down from Arsenal.
However, if it means playing regularly elsewhere, and Raya has taken over as Arsenal’s undisputed No.1, he might consider it, especially if Pickford departs the Toffees. As things stand, any move seems unlikely as the Gunners may not sanction a premature departure of one of their important players midway through the season.
