- Israeli goalkeeper Daniel Peretz injured, potentially out for 10 days.
- Injury may give backup Aaron Ramsdale a chance to play for Southampton.
- Peretz also likely to miss Israel's match against Ireland.
- Southampton signed Peretz in the summer, making him the starter.
Israeli goalkeeper Daniel Peretz of Southampton is reportedly out for approximately ten days with a groin injury, casting doubt on his availability for upcoming matches. This injury could present a significant opportunity for backup goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale to make his debut for the senior team this season. Peretz, who was signed by Southampton in the summer, has been the first-choice goalkeeper, with Ramsdale serving as his backup alongside George Long.
Peretz's injury makes him questionable for Southampton's next match against Portsmouth. English media suggest this situation could be Ramsdale's "biggest chance of the season." While Long is currently the secondary backup, Ramsdale might step in if Peretz is unable to play.
Reports indicate that Ramsdale could be considered the strongest goalkeeper on the team even when Peretz is fit. A strong performance in the derby against Portsmouth could allow Ramsdale to re-stake his claim for the starting position, especially given Peretz's inconsistent start to the season compared to his strong finish last year.
