The Gunners boss Arteta denied reports that Bernd Leno reacted poorly to losing a starting spot to £ 24m in the summer by signing Ramsdale.
What did Arteta say?
Germany’s international goalkeeper began a 2021-22 stick-between campaign for the Gunners, but conceded nine goals in their innocent three-game opening. Aaron Ramsdale was called up for a 1-0 win over Norwich, and speculation has since emerged about Bernd Leno’s alleged display of training anger.
Mikel Arteta insists that this is not the case, telling reporters ahead of his trip to Burnley on Saturday that no, it is not true. Arteta replied, you may be upset, but you, he was top with his teammates in training with everything that was not true.
Insisted on whether he should give Bernd Leno any reassurance about his future, Mikel added that no, that’s what he told them and he told the goalkeepers in the last two or three years – that they don’t want to do that.
What they want to do is expand the performance by asking them to practice, behave and play their best. How can Mikel guarantee something to someone? It wouldn’t make sense with what they ask them to do. So on a daily basis, what you did three months ago in football doesn’t count. This is what you are going to do today and tomorrow and that’s it.
A little about the topic
Bernd Leno’s contract for Emirates Stadium is only due until 2023, and there were rumors that he struck this deal before moving on. Arsenal have taken steps to ensure they have a long-term successor, with considerable faith and funds invested in England’s Aaron Ramsdale hope. He’s only 23 years old, but the Spaniard says he was given the chance after proving himself worthy.
Arteta said when asked why he made a change in his # 1 spot that they should change something and Ramsdale came here to try and make them better. they needed a result that day, and Mikel decided to play it. It’s all
