“Once a Gunner, Always a Gunner” – Aaron Ramsdale Breaks Down in Emotional Tribute to Arsenal Ahead of Champions League Showdown with Real Madrid after historic relegation from the EPL last weekend

In a heartfelt message that sent shivers down the spines of Gooners worldwide, former Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale poured his heart out in an emotional tribute to his old club just hours before their monumental Champions League clash with Real Madrid.

The English shot-stopper, who left the Emirates under bittersweet circumstances, took to social media earlier today to express his unwavering support for the red side of North London. Ramsdale, visibly moved in a short video, said:

“No matter where football takes me, Arsenal will always be in my heart. I’ve shared battles, triumphs, and unforgettable memories in that shirt. Tomorrow is huge… and I just want the boys to know – I’m with you. All the way. Come on you Gunners!”

Fans were quick to flood the comments with support, with many praising Ramsdale’s class and loyalty. “This is what it means to be a Gunner,” one fan wrote. “Rambo still bleeds red and white.”

Arsenal are set to face Real Madrid tomorrow in what promises to be a thunderous Champions League fixture. With millions watching, and the weight of history pressing down, Ramsdale’s message couldn’t have come at a better time – a reminder of the brotherhood and bond that runs deep within the Arsenal family.

Will his words inspire a historic result at the Bernabéu? Only time will tell. But one thing’s for sure – Aaron Ramsdale has proven he’s still very much one of Arsenal’s own.

Ramsdale’s emotional outpour didn’t stop with Arsenal. In a moment that tugged at even more heartstrings, the former Bournemouth and Sheffield United man also addressed the recent relegation of Southampton, the club where his journey into the top flight began to gain traction.

Speaking candidly, Ramsdale said:

“Seeing Southampton go down early this season really hurt. That club means a lot to me… they gave me a shot, they believed in me. It’s painful to see them struggle, but I know the spirit down there. They’ll bounce back — they always do.”

His words resonated deeply with Saints supporters, many of whom praised Ramsdale for remembering his roots amid his rise. It was a rare moment of vulnerability and honesty in a sport often cloaked in bravado, and fans across the Premier League applauded the keeper for showing heart — not just for the badge he once wore, but for the game as a whole.

In a world where footballers are often seen as distant superstars, Ramsdale reminded everyone what true connection looks like — both to club and community.

As Arsenal prepare for their biggest European night in years, they’ll be carrying not just the hopes of their fans — but the silent prayers of a former Gunner who’ll be cheering them on from afar.
