Aaron Ramsdale has signed a four-year contract with Southampton, making a move from Arsenal for an initial £18 million, with potential add-ons bringing the total to £25 million. The England goalkeeper, who had fallen out of favor at Arsenal, celebrated his signing by dressing as Hagrid from Harry Potter, referencing his attendance at Southampton's play-off final last season where he supported friend David Brooks. Manager Russell Martin expressed excitement about the acquisition, viewing it as a major statement for the club. Ramsdale aims to regain his form and earn back his place in the national team, emphasizing his desire to play regularly after a frustrating period on the bench. The transfer comes amid interest from various clubs, but Ramsdale was swayed by Southampton's persistent efforts and their playing style. This signing marks a key addition for the Saints as they prepare for the upcoming season.
