Arsenal may make another offer for Sheffield United goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale later in the transfer window, according to the Daily Telegraph‘s Mike McGrath.
The journalist, who generally has a good track record, claims that while the Gunners are not likely to match the 23-year-old’s £30m asking price, they could table a “structured deal” at some point in the next few weeks:

Reports suggest that the Blades won’t budge on their price tag for Ramsdale, after already rejecting two offers from Arsenal for the shot-stopper.
It must be pointed out that the Yorkshire club spent £18.5m on the England international last summer, so they are expecting to make a sizeable profit on the player, despite their relegation to the Championship.
There were claims in the local media earlier this month that United may hold out for around £40m so it does seem as though their stance has begun to soften on Ramsdale somewhat.
