The 26-year-old has scored two goals in 11 games this season.

Sporting director Christoph Freund told BILD: “Of course, he is still on our radar. The club worked intensively with Palhinha in the summer.
“I was there for a while on the last day of the moving window, but we can’t say yet what will happen.
“We scouted the market. “

Speaking to The Highbury Corner podcast, Ramsdale’s father Nick said: “When I spoke to Mr Arteta on the phone before signing Aaron, he said he was looking for Aaron. But now you know, David Raya is back on the market and they gave him David Raya.
“Why extend the contract of a goalkeeper or any player, and then two months or three months later [take a step to something else?”
“Aaron will be the goalkeeper of the Cup and David Raya will be the protagonist unless something happens, an injury or a sending off. Aaron has to live with this, and he lives with it even though he hasn’t been told. For anyone. “
“Aaron lost that smile when he was holding the ball at the time.
“And it’s hard. It’s hard to see him there and we keep saying keep smiling. “

In fact, Al-Hilal is owned by the Saudi Public Investment Fund, which is the majority shareholder of the northeastern giants.
But should clubs vote to keep the same rules, Neves to Newcastle could advance quickly.
Former Newcastle striker Papiss Cisse is training with non-league Macclesfield with a view to a permanent deal.

“Timo is going through a difficult time and we are helping him. Life is rarely very sunny.

“He is a part of our team, and he has to face up to competition for places.”

Harry Redknapp insists Chelsea want to think about completing the top four this season, but believes they want to do so in attack.
He said at the sports breakfast: “Thanks to Chelsea, they are back after the result the other day against Tottenham.
“[But] I still think they’re quite a way off it, I still think they’ve got a lot to do.
“But they’re getting one or two [players] back, Reece James came back at right-back, that’s a big advantage for them.
“I still think they need a front man, I know the lad [Nicolas Jackson] has scored a few goals, he’s had a good week with his goals [hat-trick vs Spurs, one against City].
“But if they want to push on and be challenging, they’ll do well this year if they can make top four, that’ll be a big, big bonus for them, it’s not going to be easy, but that’s got to be their goal.”
Harry Maguire feels vindicated in his decision to snub a summer transfer after forcing his way back into Erik ten Hag’s starting XI.
Asked if he considered staying to be a private justification, he said: “Of course.
“I played a couple of matches last year, 16 or 17 starts, and I felt like I played well in the matches I played. I just didn’t play as much as I would have liked.
“In the hand, Rapha (Varane) and Licha (Martinez) played brilliantly and kept a lot of blank slates. I had to wait for the right moment and be patient.
“I had two or three opportunities last season to get a run of games but I broke down with illness, I broke down with injuries twice, so I never got the rhythm and never got the run of games that I could prove myself to the manager.
“I’ve been given it now, I’m enjoying football and I enjoy betting on this club.
“I was in a position to stay and fight for my position and we have four or five very productive foreign centre-backs in this club and the position festival is high. “

talkSPORT understands that the Reds, along with Newcastle, have the midfielder on their shortlist for the January window.
Asked about Raheem Sterling’s move to Premier League rivals Chelsea, he said: “Never. I would never [get in the way]. “
“From my point of view, I’ve said it many times at the club. I give my opinion to the club and them if the play is suitable for both parties and for the player.
“Why? I think that means you’re a small club [if you block a transfer]. The big clubs don’t care. They make decisions in the most productive interest of the three parties, the players and any of the clubs, and the agents. So it’s not really a problem.
“If they need to move to Chelsea or Manchester United or, I don’t know, Liverpool, whatever, whatever, what’s the problem?They are happy to be here and the club is satisfied with the transfer.
“The other club is pleased with the amount they’re spending, so that’s fine. Another player will sign for us and we will continue with an intelligent spirit and humour. “

“So, making early decisions, in my experience, is not smart at all and also because the team has certain desires that want to be fulfilled. And to do that, you can’t do it with six, 10 or 14 players. “It’s impossible, so you need everyone and Aaron has a vital role in the team.
