Former Arsenal goalkeeper Vito Mannone says Aaron Ramsdale should push to leave in January.

Ramsdale has found himself relegated to backup for David Raya, just as Mannone did at the Gunners behind Wojciech Szceszny.

Now with Lille, Mannone is quoted by The Sun stating: "It's not easy but in Ramsdale's place I'd have taken it badly.

My advice to him is to keep working.

I waited eight years before I became a Premier League regular, Emi Martinez had to wait ten years before stealing the show.

He also had many loans and paid his dues. But those who work and bide their time eventually end up making it.

But if Ramsdale's moment won't come again, he should look for it elsewhere! There's not much else he can do.

I lost my place after a great year. It was tough to accept."
