‘I am open’ – Justin Bijlow welcomes Arsenal transfer interest amid £30m decision on Aaron Ramsdale.
Feyenoord goalkeeper Justin Bijlow has indicated his interest in a potential move to Arsenal, describing the club as “a nice club” and expressing his ambition to compete at the highest level. With Arsenal’s current backup goalkeeper, Aaron Ramsdale, reportedly considering a transfer to seek more playing time, Bijlow has emerged as a possible target for the Emirates Stadium.
Bijlow has also been linked with Liverpool, with Feyenoord manager Arne Slot reportedly visiting Merseyside. Despite having made 143 appearances for Feyenoord, Bijlow would likely join either Arsenal or Liverpool as a second-choice goalkeeper. He remains open to the possibility of a move abroad, stating that he is ambitious and willing to consider options beyond Feyenoord.
While Bijlow is expected to be part of the Netherlands squad for Euro 2024, any decision regarding his future may be postponed until after the tournament. Although he has two years left on his contract with Feyenoord, Bijlow has not ruled out the prospect of moving to a foreign club if the opportunity arises.
Arsenal’s interest in Bijlow may depend on Ramsdale’s potential departure, as the Gunners have reportedly set a £30 million price tag on the English goalkeeper, deterring potential suitors such as Newcastle United.
