Wolves make contact for wantaway Arsenal star, but offer comes with a twist

Ramsdale’s future at Arsenal has been the subject of speculation for some time as he has fallen down the pecking order at the Emirates since David Raya’s arrival. Ramsdale only made 11 appearances in all competitions last season and was on the bench during Arsenal’s 2-0 home win over Wolves on Saturday.

Dutch giants Ajax have enquired about taking Ramsdale on loan but it is understood Arsenal, at this stage, prefer a permanent sale.

Several Premier League clubs are also monitoring Ramsdale’s situation in North London, hoping he will become available for loan as the transfer deadline edges closer.

On Sunday, Fabrizio Romano revealed that he expects there to be movement regarding Ramsdale’s situation ‘in the next [few] days’. That has now happened, with Wolves moving in.

Sources have confirmed  that Wolves have sounded out Arsenal over a potential deal for England international Ramsdale, with Molineux boss Gary O’Neil a big admirer of the former Sheffield United star.

However, the approach comes with a twist, as Wolves are plotting a loan swoop for Ramsdale, rather than a permanent move. It remains to be seen if Arsenal will change their stance and allow the 26-year-old to leave on loan as they will need to bring in a replacement if he does depart.
