England goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has transferred from Arsenal to Southampton after losing his spot on the team to David Raya. The move, finalized on the last day of the summer transfer window, sees Ramsdale joining Southampton on a four-year deal worth 18 million pounds.

Ramsdale was once named in the Premier League's team of the year but fell out of favor at Arsenal following Raya's arrival. Although he was part of England's squad at the recent European Championship, he did not get any playing time. He opted for a fresh challenge at Southampton, who are expected to battle relegation.

Southampton manager Russell Martin hailed the acquisition as a "statement signing," emphasizing Ramsdale's talent and his fit with the team's playing style. Ramsdale, who has earned five caps for England, is eager to get back to his best and enjoy his time on the south coast.
