Everton could look into loaning out Aaron Ramsdale in January, with the 25-year-old Arsenal star’s future unknown.
Fichajes has identified Aaron Ramsdale as a prospective January target for Everton, with the Toffees apparently hoping to bring the 25-year-old Arsenal player on loan. The goalkeeper’s immediate future at Arsenal has been called into question, although a move to Merseyside is unlikely.
Everton are still in a difficult financial situation and may have to make sales in the January window after failing to leave in the summer. Amadou Onana and Jordan Pickford are two players who would guarantee a large enough transfer fee, with the latter attracting considerable interest.
Pundits such as Jamie Carragher have indicated that Ramsdale may depart Arsenal if the club choose to sell one of their goalkeepers. As things currently stand, most pundits believe Raya will eventually become the club’s indisputable No.1, leaving Ramsdale’s future uncertain.
Ramsdale only signed a new contract in May, and Arsenal will not look to offload him this season, particularly in January. According to last week’s reports, he is being pursued by Bayern Munich and Chelsea. When it becomes evident that Arsenal is willing to sell him, many other clubs will make offers as well.
Earlier reports stated that Ramsdale is ready to battle for his spot and is unaffected by the speculation about his future. Everton are the latest team to express an interest in signing him, albeit they may be unable to afford a permanent deal, particularly in January.
According to the report, the Toffees may look into a loan deal for the 25-year-old Arsenal star if his situation in North London worsens. Ramsdale may not want to join Everton because it would be a step down from Arsenal.
However, if it means playing frequently elsewhere and Raya has established himself as Arsenal’s unquestioned No.1, he may consider it, especially if Pickford leaves the Toffees.
