Aaron Ramsdale has made a name for himself as one of the finest ball-playing goalkeepers currently playing between the sticks in the Premier League. Arsenal signed the 24-year-old in the summer of 2021 because of his ability with his feet as much as his hands.
Mikel Arteta's desire to build a side adept at playing out from the back paved the way for Ramsdale to become the club's No. 1, replacing Bernd Leno who was deemed surplus to requirements. However, despite demonstrating his ball-playing prowess throughout this season for the league leaders, Ramsdale's dad regularly 'threatens' to text Arteta over his insistence on playing this style of football.
The 'keeper admitted his dad Nick 'hates' watching his son trying to build attacks from inside his own box. While Ramsdale has rarely shown signs of dropping clangers, there are still enough hairy moments for his dad to be given the frighteners.
