Since signing in the summer transfer window, Aaron Ramsdale has been one of Southampton's best players. However, there is concern about his fitness levels ahead of facing Liverpool.
Therefore, it has been a race against time to have him fit again in time for the weekend.
Aaron Ramsdale has an injury in his finger. This is what forced him to miss out on England duty.
Russell Martin has since confirmed that Aaron Ramsdale has undergone surgery to address his current finger injury.
Russell Martin confirmed that Ramsdale will miss this weekend's fixture against Liverpool. Not only this, but he will miss a number of weeks.
In his own words, Martin said: "[Aaron Ramsdale is] out for this weekend and a number of weeks. Aaron has had an operation on his finger, he'll hopefully be back this side of Christmas."
Doesn't sound good, unfortunately.
Now that Aaron Ramsdale has been ruled out of the upcoming match against Liverpool, it is likely to be Alex McCarthy who replaces Aaron Ramsdale between the sticks.
Alex McCarthy has played two Premier League games so far this season in August, conceding two goals in two matches. He is 34 years old and has good experience at this level.
No. Aaron Ramsdale has been ruled out for this match against Liverpool and for the next few weeks. Therefore, if he is in your Fantasy Football team, the best solution is either transferring him out or replacing him with your sub.
Alex McCarthy will be given a few games to prove himself between the sticks for Southampton. However, considering the difficult fixtures Southampton have coming up, it is best to avoid Southampton players in your back-line and goal.
