Beşiktaş is now considering 28-year-old English international Aaron Ramsdale as an alternative for the goalkeeper position. The experienced player, who has 5 caps for England, has returned to Southampton after a loan spell at Newcastle United where he made 12 Premier League appearances in the 2025/2026 season, and a financial assessment for a potential transfer has begun. Leeds United and Everton have also been mentioned in connection with the goalkeeper, whose current market value is listed by Transfermarkt as €12.00m. According to recent reports from June 2026, Southampton would accept a fee between €18-€24 million. This followed Newcastle United's decision in May 2026 not to exercise their €24 million purchase option.
