Arsenal has been linked with a move for Brighton goalkeeper Jason Steele as they search for a replacement for Aaron Ramsdale.

Ramsdale has served as Arsenal’s second-choice goalkeeper this season but is eager to regain a starting position.

To achieve this, he must leave Arsenal, as David Raya has solidified his position as the first-choice goalkeeper at the Emirates.

While Arsenal was not open to losing Ramsdale in January, they are now preparing for his departure in the summer.

According to a report from Standard Sport, Arsenal is interested in Steele, who has been impressive for Brighton, despite recently losing his place to Bart Verbruggen.

Steele may prefer to serve as a second-choice goalkeeper at a bigger club like Arsenal rather than Brighton.

Just Arsenal Opinion

Steele has been a good goalie for Brighton, and he will do a good job as our second choice, but we need to offload Ramsdale first before considering a new goalie.

The Englishman will only leave if a big club offers him the role of their first choice because it will make no sense to leave Arsenal and sit on the bench at another club.
