Aaron Ramsdale has replaced Leno in the starting lineup.

Mikel Arteta has made summer signing Aaron Ramsdale his first-choice goalkeeper after a series of poor performances by Leno.

The German goalkeeper has to fight to regain his place in the squad after failing to keep a clean sheet this season.

His contract expires in 2023 and Arsenal legend Nigel Winterburn expects the 29-year goalkeeper to leave in January or by next summer.

‘My gut feeling is that Bernd Leno will leave Arsenal,’ Winterburn told Paddy Power.

‘It may not be in January, but it’s hard for a goalkeeper who’s been first choice to suddenly not be any more, and it’s obvious that he isn’t.

‘Mikel Arteta will say that it’s based on performances, but Leno would say, “we had three heavy defeats, but I didn’t do too much wrong”.

‘Sometimes a manager gets a gut feeling that he must change something, and he’ll know current results aren’t acceptable.

‘Whilst he’s not blaming anyone individually, he’s made a decision to change the team up.

‘Leno will be gone, but Arsenal can’t afford to let him go until they’ve got somebody in. There’s no way they can let him go and stick with the other goalkeeper’s they have.’
