    Looks like Ramsdale is heading off to Southampton. Not confirmed yet, but the BBC is reporting a fee of between 18-25m has been agreed (18 up front, 7 in potential add-ons). So a pretty solid source.

    I hope it goes through. He’s a quality player and a great lad, but he clearly doesn’t have a future with us. So I hope he can restart his career elsewhere.

      Saw a similar report from the Guardian. Kinda of a shame the way it’s ended. He was huge for us at times with some great saves to his name. His passion and banter with opposition fans was great as well.

      I hope he kicks on, just not against us :)

    Arsenal reach agreement with AFC Bournemouth to sign goalkeeper Neto. Deal for 35yo Brazilian season-long loan - no buy option or obligation. Medical on #DeadlineDay as #AFC line up No2 to Raya after Ramsdale exit + struggle to get Garcia

      Romano:

      🔴⚪️ Arsenal and Bournemouth have reached verbal agreement for Neto as backup goalkeeper.

      Deal will happen only if Arsenal will not be able to sign Joan García as Espanyol have rejected TWO bids today.

      Espanyol insist on release clause or nothing.

        I’ve not heard that particular nickname before, but I think he will. Trouble is, it’s Southampton… so we’ll batter them anyway. I hope we can still be friends with him.
