Aaron Ramsdale has enjoyed a great season at the Emirates Stadium and is expected to perform for the Three Lions later this month.
A little about Aaron Ramsdale
English footballer Aaron Ramsdale will miss PL’s Saturday trip to Aston Villa with a hip injury, casting doubt on Arsenal’s participation in England’s March international breakthrough. The goalkeeper may have been the custodian of the top-flight season, and the cornerstone of the north London club’s resurgence under Arteta, who emerged as Champions League contenders.
But he’s been out entirely from the squad for Saturday’s game at Villa Park as the visitors look to secure the top four berths, with the club confirming he’s been ruled out with a hip problem, with Leno named as his replacement.
What did Mikel Arteta say?
Before starting at Villa Park, Mikel Arteta confirmed that Aaron Ramsdale had a muscle injury and would be out for a few weeks. Touched Arteta and the absence of the Brazilian, while Gabriel Martinelli’s was also absent from the trip to Villa Park. Mikel Arteta added that Martinelli has been ill for the past few days, so he left the squad, unfortunately.
A little about the topic
Called up as a late addition to last summer’s Euro 2020 tournament, Gunner made his debut against San Marino in November as Southgate finished second. But his form has proven the biggest threat to Pickford’s stay between posts since the Evertonian became England’s first choice, suggesting he could very well start this month’s games against Switzerland and the Ivory Coast.
With Aaron reportedly for a couple of weeks, however, he is unlikely to play at all and may instead stay at Arsenal to regain his fitness, with an eye on being included for this summer fixture list and the Qatar 2022 World Cup later this year.
