Aaron Ramsdale: Mikel Arteta wants Arsenal & England goalkeeper to stay

Manager Mikel Arteta insists England international goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale is staying with Arsenal, despite losing his starting berth to David Raya.

Raya joined the Gunners on loan from Brentford in the summer and has usurped Ramsdale from the number one spot.

Ramsdale, 25, who has won four full England caps, has made only three club appearances across all competitions since early September, and has been linked with Newcastle.

"I want Aaron with us," Arteta said.

"I am very happy to have two very, very good goalkeepers and Aaron is staying with us.

"We want to be better, so we want to add to what we already have.
