Aaron Ramsdale \u201cwill be looking for another club\u201d after losing his number one spot to David Raya, according to Brad Friedel.<\/p>\n

The Gunners\u2019 goalkeeper has found himself on the bench since the Spain international made his debut against Everton and former Tottenham shotstopper Friedel believes he won\u2019t be hanging around if that situation continues.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think [Arsenal] have two of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League,\u201d Friedel told BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI think [Mikel] Arteta made a choice and the goalkeeping coach and the staff and analytics, everybody made a decision that they wanted Raya. When they made that decision for whatever the fee was, he\u2019s coming in as the number one.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you saw Raya get his opportunity in the Premier League then followed up in the midweek Champions League, I think that was the writing on the wall that he was now the number one. I thought Ramsdale last season was excellent and you\u2019re probably looking at if Raya stays fit then he\u2019s the number one and Ramsdale will be looking for another club.\u201d<\/p>\n

Arsenal manager Arteta\u00a0played down the goalkeeping change last week\u00a0when he said: \u201cI cannot have two players like this in one position and not play them. David has tremendous qualities like Aaron has, like Karl [Hein] has, but we have to use them you know.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Friedel feels constantly swapping the pair won\u2019t work, adding: \u201cYou can\u2019t job-share number-one goalkeepers and if you do you can only do it for a very short period of time.<\/p>\n

\u201cRamsdale will be wanting to play and he should because he\u2019s good enough to be a number-one goalkeeper somewhere in the Premier League and if not the Premier League then somewhere in one of Europe\u2019s top leagues.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to move in January and I\u2019m sure Arsenal won\u2019t deal with a move in January, so I\u2019m going to assume in the next summer transfer window we\u2019re going to see Ramsdale on the move.\u201d<\/p>\n
