He was instrumental in the Gunners&#8217; 5-4 penalty shoot-out victory over Bournemouth as he made two vital saves and was tipped for a <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.arsenal.com\/news\/every-word-artetas-post-bournemouth-presser-1\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;big future&#8221;<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> by Mikel Arteta.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As the third-choice keeper, Hein will find it hard to get game-time if he remains at Arsenal. Leaving North London for a short-term loan would do him a world of good. The 22-year-old signed a <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">new contract<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> in June 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">While a loan move does benefit Hein, it is unclear whether a transfer to the third tier of English football is right. The youngster is a fully-fledged international and has made 30 appearances for <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Estonia. He deserves and is talented enough to play in the Championship at the least.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Who Will Be David Raya\u2019s Understudy at Arsenal?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Arsenal have shown interest in RCD Espanyol\u2019s<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/07\/02\/arsenal-keeping-tabs-joan-garcia\/\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Joan Garcia<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> to replace Ramsdale<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.
