‘I’m certain’: Manchester United tipped to make move to sign £30m Arsenal player after having an impressive performance against Brentford last night
Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale played for the Gunners at Brentford yesterday as he had an up and down day of things.
Ramsdale had a nightmare moment in the opening 15 minutes of the game where he very nearly handed Brentford the lead when getting the ball stuck under his feet.
However, he recovered well and in the end, kept a clean-sheet to stake his claim to be the number one ahead of David Raya.
Of course, much has been made of the Ramsdale/Raya situation. Gary Neville slammed Mikel Arteta for putting Ramsdale under pressure yesterday, and the topic does not seem to be going away in the media.
Ramsdale is also being linked with a move away in January, with Newcastle and Chelsea among the clubs keen. Wolves are also reportedly keen on the England man as well.
However, former player turned pundit, Jonathan Walters, believes there’s another club who’ll be keen on Ramsdale. And that club is Manchester United.
Manchester United tipped to sign Aaron Ramsdale
Taking to his social media account on X last night, Walters declared his love for Ramsdale before admitting he thinks United will be one of the clubs looking to sign him up.
The Old Trafford outfit have seen new signing Andre Onana have a bit of torrid time of things in the main.
There is already pressure on Onana and his manager, Erik ten Hag, and there could well be some big signings for United in January once Jim Ratcliffe’s 25% takeover is sorted.
However, whether the club will give up on Onana and move for someone like Ramsdale is another matter entirely.
Ramsdale has been shunted down the pecking order for a reason at Arsenal and given United signed Onana due to how good he is with his feet, it seems odd they’d replace him with Ramsdale.
Walters makes a decent enough point here. But it would still be hugely surprising to see the Arsenal man wind up at Manchester United.
